British super bantamweight champion Scott Quigg joins Matchroom Sport.

Matchroom Sport promoter Eddie Hearn has announced the signing of British super bantamweight champion Scott Quigg.

The unbeaten 24-year-old has now been scheduled for the June 29 card at the Bolton Arena, although an opponent is yet to be arranged.

"I'm delighted to welcome Scott Quigg to the team," Hearn told Sky Sports News. "He is on the cusp of challenging for a world title, and with the backing of Matchroom Sport and Sky Sports, we believe he'll get there and stay there for a long time."

Quigg, who has not fought since defeating Rendall Munroe in November, added: "I'm delighted to have signed a deal with Matchroom Sport and it's great to have a fight so soon.

"I've got the same hunger as always and I just want to get active again and I think Matchroom Sport and Sky Sports is the place to get that. I can't wait to get back in there, that's where I'm at home and I've missed it.

"I came into boxing wanting to be a world champion, I don't want to settle at British or European - I've come in to be the best. You might need a bit of luck here and there but I think I have the ability and I know I have the desire and dedication to make it happen."

Quigg's divisional rival Carl Frampton recently left Matchroom Sport.
