And Rigondeaux has given fans a taste of what they can expect against British super-bantamweight champion Dickens by taking part in an open workout which allowed him to show off his reflexes.
The pound-for-pound superstar can be seen showing neat footwork to float around the ring while he was tasked with catching various balls before they hit the canvas.
With ease, Rigondeaux moved around the boxing ring and easily collected the balls which were thrown at different heights by his trainer.

On Saturday, Rigondeaux will be making his first appearance in Britain having spent the majority of his professional career fighting in America.
Rigondeaux is undefeated in 16 bouts as a professional and recorded 475 victories in 487 contests as an amateur.

Earlier this year, Carl Frampton was stripped of the WBA super-bantamweight title for avoiding the unbeaten Cuban Rigondeaux.
The Northern Irishman beat Scott Quigg via split decision in February to add the WBA title to his IBF belt, but he has relinquished it less than two months later.
The Cuban southpaw, 35, was unimpressed with Frampton’s cagey split-decision win over Quigg in Manchester.
‘No wonder (Frampton) has been running away from me 4 years. He can’t even box. Do you guys remember what happen 2 Nonito (Donaire)? Wait until I get his guy!’ Rigondeaux tweeted.
Rigondeaux v Dickens will be televised live on BoxNation this Saturday night. Tickets can be found on the eventim.co.uk website.
