? Bout to take place at Liverpool Echo Arena on 11 December
? Champion Smith has won all but one of his 30 fights
James DeGale will meet Paul Smith for the British super-middleweight title at the Liverpool Echo Arena on 11 December.
The contest marks a significant step up in class for the Olympic gold medallist, who secured his eighth professional victory last month with an impressive first-round stoppage of Carl Dilks.
Smith has won all but one of his 30 fights and seized the British title from fellow Liverpudlian Tony Quigley in October last year.
DeGale has improved markedly since turning professional in February 2009, stopping all but two of his opponents.
