David Price will defend his British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles against Audley Harrison in the autumn.
The Liverpudlian, 29, will meet Harrison, a former Olympic gold medallist, at Liverpool's Echo Arena on October 13.
Price, who also won an Olympic bronze in Beijing four years ago, says that Harrison, 40, will be "flattened".
"Audley was an inspiration to me when I was younger, someone our amateur squad always looked up to," he said.
"He called me before Beijing to offer advice, which I'm grateful for, but he's still getting flattened."
Price boasts an unbeaten professional record of 13 wins, 11 of which came by way of knockout.
