Jason Quigley will join Sky Sports’ team for coverage of Saturday night’s WBA lightweight title fight between Jorge Linares and Luke Campbell.

Hull southpaw Campbell (17-1) meets the imposing Venezuelan Linares (42-3) at the Forum.

Quigley is familiar with the venue, in the Los Angeles suburb of Inglewood, as it was here that he dropped Jorge Melendez in the first round of their bout last December.

Now, Quigley – who was this week given the green light on an injury to his right hand- returns to ringside at the Forum to help call the title bout between Linares and Campbell.

Quigley shared an undercard with ‘Cool Hand Luke’ in August 2014.

Quigley defeated Fernando Najera at the SubHub Center in Carson in his second pro fight while Campbell moved to 7-0 with a second round stoppage of Steve Trumble.
