"It's going to be amazing to get back in the ring, especially fighting in the UK again," 'King' Khan told Sky Sports after Thursday's press conference.

"I hope this fight lasts longer than my last. The Liverpool fans were amazing for the Lo Greco fight, but I believe Birmingham really can bring something special, these guys make noise.

"We are only going to keep moving up. We know Vargas wants to make a name for himself. Eddie said this guy kept pestering him to fight me, so that means he's seen something to beat me.

"Let's see. I never go in thinking it will be easy.

"I'm still only 31, still young and feel I can spar and run like all these young guns, I have so much energy.
"'I'm a fresh chicken, it's all about the style and experience, I push myself and train very hard."
