Olympic gold medalist and former featherweight beltholder Yuriorkis Gamboa will meet Colombia's Darley Perez in an HBO-televised lightweight match on June 8 in Montreal.
The hand injury that forced Lucian Bute to postpone his May 25 showdown with Jean Pascal has also resulted in the entire Montreal card to be cancelled. It is not known if the Canadian broadcast of Kessler-Froch II will air without Bute-Pascal.
Yuriorkis Gamboa will return to the ring for a clash of unbeatens against Colombian Darley Perez on the June 8 card that also features RING and WBC light heavyweight champion Chad Dawson against Adonis Stevenson.
IBF beltholder Bernard Hopkins could make the first defense of his belt against Karo Murat.
Austin Trout: "Team Fight to Walk is very important to me. The statistics about number of everyday people and US troops impacted by Spinal Cord Injuries are scary."
Super middleweight contender Adonis Stevenson will pursue his seventh straight knockout win against Darnell Boone, who stopped Stevenson in 2010.
Gabriel Campillo will face Sergey Kovalev in the main event of NBC Sports' Fight Night series on Sept. 21.
