Danny Simpson vs Danny Aarons – Misfits 17: Start time, live stream, TV channel as Premier League ace makes boxing debut
PREMIER LEAGUE winner Danny Simpson is back in action THIS WEEKEND – but he’ll be in the boxing ring and not on the football pitch.
The former Manchester United and Newcastle United right-back, 37, who won football’s top-flight prize with Leicester City in 2016 is set to make his boxing debut.
Simpson will take on social media influencer Danny Aarons on the Misfits 17 card which KSI was originally meant to headline.
KSI was supposed to face Anthony Taylor and Slim in a two-on-one handicap match.
But the entertainment mogul will now perform a mini-concert instead, with a seven-fight bill to accompany the musical performance.
Elsewhere on the card, TikTok star HStikkytokky is in action, as is former Love Island contestant Jake Cornish.
