Conor Benn (18-0, 12 KOs) tested positive for Covid-19, and his scheduled WBA continental welterweight title fight on Saturday against Adrian Granados (21-8-3, 15 KOs) has been canceled.

The duel was to be the highlight of Eddie Hearn's night at his Essex residence, opening the summer Fighting Camp series. In this situation, the fight of Can Xu (18-2, 3 KOs) with Leigh Wood (24-2, 14 KOs) for the WBA Featherweight belt received the status of the main event.

In addition, viewers will see, among other things, the confrontation in the cruiserweight division for the European title of Tommy McCarthy (18-2, 9 KOs) and Chris Billam Smith (12-1, 10 KOs).
