In September last year, he pressed world star Tyson Fury over twelve rounds and was hailed in the boxing world.

Thus, the 29-year-old Sundsvallson has made it clear with his next match.

- It will be great fun to box again. One reason why we have waited for the next match is that the Fury match was tough and although I started training and felt fresh already after a week, I have wanted to take some time to rest the skull and rest even better, Wallin tells SVT Sport and continues:

- I already feel in great shape and it will be even better on March 28.

"Vegas is the Boxing Mecca"

Opponent Lucas Browne, from Australia, is 40 years old and became the WBA World Champion in 2016. Later that year he was removed from his master belt after a positive doping test.

Just like when Wallin met Fury last fall, the match is decided in Las Vegas and shown on the major US television channel Showtime.

- It is obviously really great to once again get boxed on a big American TV channel and in the boxing Mecca Las Vegas. It was a childhood dream to box in Vegas for the first time and it feels just as fun to do it again.

- After the match against Fury many offers came in, but we have taken the time to find the right one for us and I think we have succeeded.

The loss to Tyson Fury is Otto Wallin's only pro. He has a match record of 20 wins (13 via knockout) and a loss.
