Rebel fired up to do the double
Perez, who has been out of action with a damaged shoulder for the past 13 months, had a scheduled date with Tomas Mrazek from the Czech Republic who lost to Tyson Fury at the O2 last year.
Now, however, the former world junior champion will also open the show against Latvian Edgar Kalnars in a bout that was handed to him when newly-crowned Irish heavyweight champion, Colman Barrett, was forced to withdraw.
