Topping the card, screened across 109 countries, is a Southern Area title defence for Watford’s Elliott Matthews (9-0-1) who takes on Peckham’s Diego Burton (4-2-1).
Bill topper Elliott Matthews has six wins inside three rounds on his record, but the Watford middleweight can also dig deep when bombs don't finish the fight early. Many pundits, including Boxing News, rated his Southern Area-title winning effort against Gary Boulden as one of the best fights of 2013.
Matthews came through an exciting, blood-splattered scrap with the belt and now defends the title against the aggressive Diego Burton.
The Eurosport deal prompted an international signing spree by Mickey Helliet. Polish heavyweight sensation Marcin Siwi (7-0) features on his first Hellraiser show, and he's targeting titles in 2014.  He’ll be joined by German super middleweight puncher Arthur Hermann (9-0) who has knocked out his last eight opponents.
Super middleweight Darryll ‘Ferocious’ Williams (4-0), whose career was tragically put on hold after the untimely death of his manager Dean Powell last year, will make an emotional return to the ring. Williams, from Forest Hill, has signed with Hellraiser Promotions.
Joe Duffy (7-0) is a fast-rising middleweight who has featured regularly at the Camden Centre and could be Irish boxing’s new idol. Exciting Bexleyheath super-flyweight Sammy Cantwell, son of former British champion Mickey, takes his third professional fight on the bill after back-to-back wins in 2013.
Thatcham’s Marley Churcher (2-0), a respected amateur will be looking to come down to light-heavyweight, and takes his third pro contest after two wins last year. Also looking to extend their unbeaten records at the Camden Centre are Morden’s Craig Whyatt (5-0), Bushey’s Tony Milch (3-0) and Ben ‘The Entertainer’ Day (5-0-1) from Euston. Aarron Morgan takes his second fight after ending the first in just 72 seconds, taking out James Conroy in chilling style.
Former English super featherweight holder Ryan Barrett (28-11-3) is back in action, taking on Hungary’s Gergo Vari (11-4), and in the flyweight division, Guernsey’s Brad Watson (7-0) will be looking to hone in on titles after winning his first 7 fights.
Doors will open at 6pm with boxing starting at 7pm (GMT).
