Hull Arena is the home of the Hull Stringrays and Hull Pirates Ice Hockey teams of the Elite League. It`s 60 by 30 meters, so its capacity increases considerably for concerts and boxing matches.

This will be the seventh boxing event hosted at the Hull Arena. Mexican Rey Vargas clashes with Briton Gavin McDonell who will make his third appearance at the venue. The prize is the WBC super bantamweight crown.
