Tinker will follow in the footsteps of Scarborough legend Paul Ingle in fighting at the iconic venue as he appears on the undercard of Irish featherweight Michael Conlan’s fight against Belmar Preciado.

Light heavyweight Tinker, who has quickly wrapped up two knockout wins since turning professional, will take on Esai Herrera of Austin, Texas, in a four-round fight.
