The first fight of these boxers took place in July last year and ended with the victory of Billam Smith by a separate decision of the judges. The 31-year-old defended his EBU belt for the first time in November by defeating France's Dylan Bregeon.
The winner of the April bout is due to face Italian Fabio Turchi in a mandatory defense of the EBU title. All three boxers are highly ranked by the IBF.
