Sebastien Bassong and Leroy Lita are set to step into the boxing ring for charity in October.
The pair will take part in A Night to Remember III, organised by Pro Project Promotions, at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London on October 22.

They will be among 14 ex-professional footballers competing in three-round exhibition bouts to raise funds for good causes.
Graham Stack, founder of Pro Project Promotions and a former Arsenal goalkeeper, said: “This is our biggest and most emotional line-up yet.
“Every one of these lads has a story worth telling – some have played at the very top of the game, others have had to rebuild their whole lives, and all of them are stepping back into a ring for people who need it more than they do.”
Bassong signed for the Canaries in 2012 and went on to make 123 appearances before leaving the club in 2017.
He was named Norwich City’s Player of the Season for 2012–13.
Lita, who also played for Reading and Middlesbrough, appeared 16 times for City during a loan spell in 2008 and 2009.
