Fury (8-0, 4 KOs) fought this past April, where he defeated Daniel Bocianski by unanimous decision in a six-round bout. He was recently tied to two high-profile bookings against YouTuber-turned-boxing star Jake Paul, but both of those bouts fell through. Fury withdrew from a December 2021 meeting with Paul due to injury and illness, and was then unavailable to fight Paul this past August in New York due to visa issues.
Bamba has been competing professionally since January 2021. In his most recent outing, he defeated Francisco Morales by second-round knockout at a show in Colombia.
The Nov. 13 event is headlined by an exhibition boxing bout between undefeated four-division world champion Mayweather and social media star Deji.
