Savannah Marshall vs Claressa Shields will finally take place this weekend on a landmark night for women's boxing.
The two great rivals were finally set to get the chance to settle the score and clash in early September to become the undisputed middleweight world champion.
Both fighters have 12-0 career records and their rivalry goes way back so fans were set for a thriller at The O2 Arena.
But the bout was put on hold following the news of Queen Elizabeth's death.
Now though, the clash has been rescheduled and the two stars are ready to go again and finally meet under the lights this Saturday.
It will be a historic evening for women's boxing with the undercard also including Mikaela Mayer vs Alycia Baumgardner, Caroline Dubois and Lauren Price.

This much-anticipated fight is set to take place on Saturday, October 15 at The O2 Arena in London.
The night's action will get underway at 5pm with the main event ringwalks expected at 10:30pm.
The ten-round bout will be for Marshall's WBO middleweight crown and Shields' WBA, WBC, IBF, WBF and The Ring titles.

Marshall vs Shields: What has been said?
Marshall: "I've said I'm going to hurt you and I will. You're nothing but a bully, that's what you are.
"Of course I have respect for Claressa, what she doesn't like is I have an opinion.
“I watched her last fight and thought it was diabolical and I told her that. That's what she didn't like."
Shields: "I'm going to quieten all the doubters about my knockout power, my skills and all my accomplishments.
"This isn't the first time being the underdog. I've done this numerous times and come out on top. 'Claressa you may have a big mouth, but you back it up every time'. That's what I want you to say.
"I don't know why you think you're so big and so strong. Keep my belt warm for me."
