British middleweight Chris Eubank Jr has been given the opportunity to fight for the interim WBA title when he returns to the ring on February 28.
Eubank, who suffered his first professional defeat at the hands of Billy Joe Saunders in November, will take on current title holder Dmitry Chudinov at the O2 Arena in London.
The 28-year-old Russian is currently unbeaten in 16 contests, with nine of his victories coming by stoppage, and his showdown with Eubank is expected to be another significant test for the Brighton fighter.
The bout will act as the chief support to Tyson Fury's heavyweight match with Germany's Christian Hammer.
