It's been confirmed tickets from Carl Frampton v Nonito Donaire will go on sale this week.

The Jackal faces the Filipino four-weight World Champion at the SSE Arena on Saturday 21st April.

Frampton said: "It’s a brilliant fight - a four-weight World Champion against a two-weight World Champion"

Adding, "Has a bigger ‘away’ fighter ever come to fight in Belfast before? I don’t think there’s been a bigger name than Nonito Donaire and he’s coming to fight a local guy in his hometown.

"But I think both of us are in the same situation – a slip-up here and one of us might never fight for a World Title again. There’s a lot on the line for both guys."

Promoter Frank Warren said: "Belfast fight fans are going to be in for another treat on April 21st. This is a guaranteed barn burner between two elite Featherweights. Both men have held multiple World Titles and know that a win will lead to another shot at World glory.
  
"If Carl comes through this fight then it’s the big one at Windsor Park in the summer next. That is what we promised him and that is what we will deliver if he gets the win in April."

Tickets for Frampton vs. Donaire are available to purchase from the SSE Arena Belfast Box Office, www.ssearenabelfast.com and 028 9073 9074 from 10.00am on Thursday 11th January.
