But first British fighter heads off to help rebuild school in Peshawar, Pakistan

Amir Khan says he will find out in the 'next couple of weeks' if his fight with Floyd Mayweather is on.
The welterweight is off to Peshawar, Pakistan, to offer his support to the school where 141 people, mainly children, were murdered by the Taliban.
But before Khan flew out he made it clear that he is closing in on the superfight he craves - a showdown with Mayweather remains top of his wish list.
"I want the big names like the Mayweathers and the Pacquiaos," he told Sky Sport News HQ.
"I don't know how long they are going to be around for, so hopefully I can get one of them.
"Fingers crossed and I should find out in a couple of weeks what's going to happen."
Khan also refused to dismiss an all-British clash with Kell Brook.
"That could be an option as well," he said.
Khan also confirmed he is auctioning off the £30,000 shorts he wore in his victory over Devon Alexander to raise funds to help rebuild the school destroyed in Peshawar.
