Five prospects to watch on Yafai vs Rodriguez Jr undercard – including Olympian and ‘world-class' knockout artist
As Galal Yafai continues his charge towards a world title, a new wave of unbeaten prospects is ready to make a statement on Saturday's undercard in Birmingham. While most of the spotlight will fall on Yafai's headlining bout against Francisco Rodriguez Jr – his first defence of the WBC interim flyweight title – the undercard is packed with rising talent eager to follow in his footsteps. Among them: an Olympian, a knockout artist, and a fighter tipped as a future world champion by Eddie Hearn himself. Pat Brown – 1-0 (1 knockout) Like headliner Galal Yafai, cruiserweight Brown represented Team GB at the Olympics, competing in Paris last summer. While he exited in the first round of the heavyweight competition, expectations remain high for the Manchester fighter in the pro ranks. Brown made his debut in March with a fourth-round stoppage of Federico Grandone (7-4-2) and returns on Saturday against Croatia's Ivan Duka (5-5), with another outing already pencilled in for Manchester next month. Backed by Matchroom and close with fellow pro Dave Allen, Brown could be set for a busy 2025. Hamza Uddin – 4-0 (1 KO) Flyweight Uddin was a standout in the amateur ranks and part of the Team GB set-up before choosing to turn professional late last year. Since debuting with a third-round stoppage of Santiago San Eusebio, the 21-year-old British-Bangladeshi has consistently stepped up – fighting opponents with winning records and moving quickly to eight-round bouts. Trained by his father Raj and managed by Sam Jones, Uddin takes on Leandro Jose Blanc (8-2) on Saturday. With Matchroom behind him and home support in the Midlands, he's tipped for a rapid rise. Aaron Bowen – 5-0 (3 KOs) Middleweight Bowen returns to familiar ground on Saturday, fighting in Birmingham where he won Commonwealth bronze in 2022. The Coventry fighter has made a strong start to his pro career, racking up five wins and three knockouts, including stoppages against Wilmer Baron (6-1) and James Todd (4-5-2). Now 26, Bowen has been with Matchroom since turning pro and is steadily building a fanbase in the Midlands. He faces experienced Ukrainian Mykola Vovk (15-7) in his latest step up. Giorgio Visioli – 7-0 (6 KOs) One of the most talked-about prospects on the card, Visioli enters with six knockouts in seven fights and serious momentum. Promoter Hearn has described the super featherweight as 'world class' and predicted he'll be in the British title picture by the end of the year. Listed on The Independent and DAZN's 'Prospects of the Year', the 23-year-old from Aldershot seems unfazed by the growing attention. 'I go into each fight treating it like a world title,' he told BBC Sport. 'All it takes is one punch to derail you.' Visioli takes on Argentina's Elias Federico Duguet (7-1-1) over eight rounds. Ibraheem Sulaimaan – 7-0 (4 KOs) Nicknamed 'The Spider', Birmingham's Sulaimaan continues his steady rise at super-featherweight. The 24-year-old earned his spot on the Matchroom roster after impressing on earlier undercards and has since notched up four stoppages in seven wins.

London City Lionesses announce high-profile signing of Danielle van de Donk
33-year-old midfielder, Danielle van de Donk, joined London City Lionesses on a free transfer following the expiry of her contract at French giants Lyon, now rebranded OL Lyonnes. Both OL Lyonnes and London City are part of Michele Kang's growing portfolio in women's football with the American investor continuing to make waves across Europe. This marks a significant first signing for the Lionesses ahead of their inaugural WSL campaign after they clinched the Championship title in May. The club operates independently of any men's team - setting it apart in a league dominated by affiliated giants like Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United. Van de Donk brings with her a wealth of experience and a winning streak. She lifted the WSL trophy with Arsenal in 2019 and played a central role in the Netherlands' European Championship victory in 2017, later helping the team reach the 2019 World Cup final. Speaking after the announcement, van de Donk said: 'I feel really good about this decision. It's such a nice environment to be in, the club really appeals to me, it reminds me of a little family, and I want to be a part of it. The project that London City have, it's different but in a good way. London City have to battle for everything and that's my style.' The veteran midfielder has penned a two year deal and will be central to a team aiming to challenge the established order in English women's football. Elsewhere in the women's game the FA has confirmed plans to expand the WSL to 14 teams starting from the 2026-27 season, a move that signals continued growth and investment in the top tier. In the third tier Burnley have appointed two time WSL winning manager Matt Beard as their new head coach, making headlines as they gear up for a transition to full time professionalism. The former Liverpool manager was in advanced discussions with Burnley and told the club's media channels: 'I'm so impressed with everybody I've met at the club and the conversations I've had, and I'm looking forward to getting started.' Beard, who was previously in charge at Chelsea and West Ham, arrives with the club preparing to become a full-time women's football operation from next season.

Club World Cup predictions: Saturday group-stage tips and odds
Our expert has tips for all four of Saturday's Club World Cup matches, including Mamelodi Sundowns versus Bundesliga big guns Borussia Dortmund in Cincinnati. Already signed up to BoyleSports? Check out more free bets from the best betting sites, reviewed by our experts. Mamelodi Sundowns vs Borussia Dortmund (Cincinnati, 5pm BST) The German outfit underwhelmed against an ageing Fluminense defence in their Club World Cup opener, but they should get their first win on the board against Mamelodi Sundowns in Cincinnati. The South African side won their first game of the competition 1-0 against the South Korean Ulsan HD to go top of Group F – but Dortmund, who finished last season with six straight wins, will represent a significant step-up in quality. Mamelodi could have chances on the break given that Dortmund play with such a high line. With their Bundesliga fixtures averaging 3.59 goals per game last term, a win for Die Schwarzgelben and over 2.5 goals is the way to go at 10/11. Inter Milan vs Urawa Red Diamonds (Seattle, 8pm BST) New Inter Milan boss Cristian Chivu made it clear he will not be making any drastic changes at the club after replacing Simone Inzaghi, having used a compact 3-5-2 formation in his side's opening 1-1 draw with Monterrey at the Club World Cup. The Mexicans managed just one shot on target against the Italians, who should be tight and difficult to break down in this tournament, so an Inter Milan win to nil appeals at 20/23 when they take on the Japanese club. Urawa lost 3-1 to the Argentine River Plate in their first match of the tournament, but their only goal came from the penalty spot and they were wasteful with their chances. They have scored just 26 goals in 21 games in the J1 League this season and are unlikely to cause Inter many problems. Fluminense vs Ulsan HD (East Rutherford, New Jersey, 11pm Saturday BST) In their draw with Borussia Dortmund, all the talk surrounding Fluminense was about their goalkeeper and defence with the five starters having a combined age of 178. But they do have some quality in the middle – and with no prolific scorer in attack, their midfielder Matheus Martinelli is worth a bet to net against Ulsan HD at 11/2. He has scored just once in the Brazilian Serie A this season but was lively last time out, managing three shots in his 75 minutes on the pitch. Having also scored in the Copa Sudamericana this season, he is overpriced to find the net in a match that Fluminense should win. River Plate vs Monterrey (Pasadena, 2am Sunday BST) The Argentinians were deserving of their 3-1 win over Urawa Red Diamonds in their first game at the Club World Cup and they can secure their spot in the last 16 with a win over Monterrey. River Plate dominated, and the first goal in particular was an excellent piece of play with Real Madrid-bound starlet Franco Mastantuono opening the game up in midfield. They will be missing striker Sebastian Driussi for the rest of the tournament after he picked up an injury when scoring last time out, but Miguel Borja is a capable deputy. Monterrey were solid but unspectacular against Inter Milan and, despite scoring a header, Sergio Ramos looked unconvincing at times throughout the match. They could only finish seventh in Liga MX's Torneo Clausura last season and River Plate are overpriced at 21/20 to win.
