Khalil Coe will return to the venue where he suffered his lone loss for his next fight.

The Ring has learned that the light heavyweight contender will face Jesse Hart in his hometown October 11 at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. DAZN will stream the bout between Coe (10-1-1, 8 KOs) and Hart (31-3, 25 KOs) as its co-feature before another Philadelphia fighter, former Ring/IBF/WBA welterweight champ Jaron “Boots” Ennis, squares off against Angola’s Uisma Lima in the 12-round, 154-pound main event.

Coe avenged his ninth-round, technical-knockout defeat to Mexico’s Manuel Gallegos in his last fight. The Jersey City, New Jersey, native stopped Los Mochis’ Gallegos (21-3-1, 18 KOs) after the fifth round of their immediate rematch May 30 at Domo Alcalde in Guadalajara.

Gallegos upset Coe on another Ennis undercard on November 9 at Wells Fargo Center. Gallegos dropped Coe four times on his way to scoring the biggest victory of his career.

Coe, 29, made several changes to how he cuts weight and trains for fights after Gallegos beat him because he was hospitalized twice in the weeks leading up to their first fight and diagnosed with Rhabdomyolysis — the same complex muscle condition that disrupted Vergil Ortiz’s career from 2022-23. The result of their rematch reflected the effectiveness of those improvements and re-established Coe, who, like Ennis, is promoted by Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing, as a fringe contender in the 175-pound division.

Hart, meanwhile, wants to rejuvenate his own career in front of his Philadelphia fans.

The two-time super middleweight championship challenger has won five consecutive fights since Joe Smith Jr. beat him by split decision in January 2020 in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Hart, 36, hasn’t participated in an official fight since April 2024, but he has kept busy by participating in numerous one-round Team Combat League bouts over the past 15 months.
