Crolla will defend his WBO inter-continental lightweight title against Mexico's Gamaliel Diaz, while Londoner Joshua will be aiming for an eighth successive knockout win in the heavyweight division.

In his previous defence, Quigg claimed a second-round stoppage win over Tshifhiwa Munyai in April.

Quigg's other title defences came against Cuba's Yoandris Salinas and Diego Oscar Silva of Argentina.

It will be 24-year-old Jamoye's second world title fight this year having lost to Japan's Shinsuke Yamanaka for the WBC bantamweight title.
