Manchester rapper-turned-boxer Jordan McCann returns to the ring this weekend for another Misfits Boxing crossover event. He faces social media star Mo Deen on Saturday, October 10, on the undercard of Joey Essex vs Dapper Laughs, with the whole event streamed live.
This marks McCann's second fight night in less than a month, following his headline bout against Big Stacks on September 12. He suffered a defeat by a second-round TKO in that Misfits event, so he will aim to come out on top in Saturday's heavyweight clash.
Fight details and venue
McCann will face Deen – real name Mohammad Kubba – at London's Copper Box Arena, a 7,500-capacity venue opened for the London 2012 Olympic Games. McCann attended a pre-fight press conference in London on Thursday, October 9, where he reflected on his previous fight.
Speaking to Gunman Boxing, he said: “Any loss can hurt. I’ve took major losses in my life [but] no boxing match is going to compare to the things I’ve already conquered.”
McCann was also asked what he thinks about his next opponent, as he said: “Mo Deen’s a beast. I’m just going to come in there and straight hook his head off, right hook.”

Jordan McCann vs Mo Deen will be held on Saturday, October 10. Exact timings for the undercard have not been confirmed, but coverage will begin at 6.30pm, with the main event ringwalks expected around 9.20pm.
