Moses Itauma and Filip Hrgovic have the chance to complete a new generation of heavyweight heroes when they meet in London this Saturday.
The pair will battle for the vacant IBF title, and bid to join Daniel Dubois, Agit Kabayel and Murat Gassiev atop the summit of the glamour division.
But they will not be the only names who likely catch the attention of the sporting world as they build towards a date with destiny at The O2 Arena.
Here, DAZN News looks ahead to the week in boxing and picks out five key stories that it is worth keeping an eye on over the next seven days.
Dillian Whyte, Jermaine Franklin - and now, Hrgovic too? Just one man separates the Briton from the heavyweight history books right now.
Poised to be one of the division's youngest champions since Mike Tyson, Moses sits on the cusp of enhancing an already fine reputation.
He will walk to the ring as a heavy favourite - and should his hand be raised, it will tee up a terrific new chapter for a superstar on the rise.
One man will be determined to seize his own opportunity however - and that is the Croatian in the opposite corner bidding for his destiny.
Hrgoivc has raised eyebrows already this week by teasing the end of the road could be closer than he thinks should he come up short here.

Whether that is the case remains to be seen. But having missed out on the title before against Daniel Dubois, he will not give an inch now.
The former British and Commonwealth champion went closer against Abdullah Mason than many expected in their WBO bout last year.
Determined to make further waves at lightweight now, he will hope to secure a statement result against ex-title holder Denys Berinchyk.
As the main support for Moses-Hrgovic, Noakes has a chance to reaffirm his credentials for another world bid shot should he prevail here.
Queensberry has long painted itself as the home of the heavyweights, and it appears that Frank Warren has another bout ready to go.
Queensberry, Leigh Dawney
Dubois dethroned Fabio Wardley back in a May blockbuster, and now the two seem close to confirming their return for a hot rematch too.
Plenty would certainly relish a second stand-up bout between the duo - and perhaps promoters could spring an announcement this week.
One heavyweight bout that appears to be in the balance though is the long-awaited clash between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua - again.
Despite contracts being reportedly signed an age ago, attempts to move the fight from the United Kingdom have met stubborn resistance.
Fears that this particular story may fall apart - again - cannot really be ignored right now. Crunch time, for all involved, may finally be here.
