Former IBF super-featherweight champion Joe Cordina will face Gabriel Flores Jr in Stockton, California, USA on 13 December.
The fight - which will be contested at lightweight - in Flores' home town will be on the undercard of the fight between super middleweight contenders Diego Pacheco (24-0, 18 KOs) and Kevin Lele Sadjo (26-0, 23 KOs).
Welshman Cordina, 33, (18-1, 9 KOs) suffered the first defeat of his career to lose his title to Anthony Cacace in May 2024, but returned from a 14-month lay-off last July with a points win over Jaret Gonzalez Quiroz to claim the vacant WBO global lightweight title.
The 25-year-old Flores (27-2, 8 KOs) is on a six-fight winning streak, including two wins in 2025 on points against Jose Arellano and Christian Villanova Arriola.
