The 23‑year‑old fighter, who turned professional in 2024, has compiled a perfect 9‑0 record, including five victories inside the distance, and is being added to Zuffa Boxing’s growing cruiserweight stable that already features names such as Jai Opetaia, Chris Billam‑Smith and Ryan Rozicki.
Roehrig’s upcoming bout will be the main attraction of Zuffa Boxing 12, following the promotion’s recent event, Zuffa Boxing 11, which featured Johnny Fisher versus Michael Pirotton and aired on Sky Sports this past Saturday.
His trainer and mentor, former world champion George Groves, has overseen Roehrig’s rapid ascent, noting that the Londoner’s debut saw him stop former English champion Joel McIntyre in three rounds, and his most recent wins were stoppages over Adam Kolarik and Faton Tolaj at York Hall.
The new partnership with Zuffa Boxing is expected to give Roehrig greater exposure on the UK’s premier sports platform and position him for higher‑profile fights, as the promoter continues to build a dominant cruiserweight roster.
Sky Sports confirmed that the Nov. 7 fight will be streamed live, and fans without a Sky subscription can access the broadcast via the NOW streaming service or the Sky Sports app.
