Matchroom's latest signing Ryan "Tank" Aston has been added to the mouth watering May 26th bout between Carl Froch and Lucian Bute at the Nottingham arena.

The undefeated 21-year old Dudley middleweight could possibly be fighting the former WBC world youth title challenger Alistair Warren, who has been offered the bout.

Aston said: “This bill, for me, is along the same lines of Haye and Klitschko and these are all little tasters for the big thing. Carl Froch has gone down the path that I want to go, he’s gone to the top and been there for a bit and that’s where I want to get to.

“I am not just in it for the British title, I want to go all the way and I don’t think you should be in this sport if you don’t. There’s no point.

“I don’t want to be ‘Joe Bloggs, average boxer, won this and that,’ I want to keep improving all of the time and progress in the right way.”
