The former footballer was due to face John McCallum in a British super-middleweight title eliminator at York Hall in London on July 4 but has pulled out because of a neck injury.

The bout against the unbeaten Scot has been rearranged for October 17. McKenzie beat Ivan Stupalo to claim the vacant super-middleweight International Masters title in March.

The 37-year-old was in Norwich on Saturday, to be introduced to the Carrow Road crowd ahead of City's play-off semi-final second leg against Ipswich, receiving a rousing reception for his former East Anglian Derby heroics.
