All Blacks midfielder Sonny Bill Williams has announced details of his next boxing bout, which will take place during the Super 15 season.

Waitakere's Trusts Stadium will host the bout on June 5th with the opponent yet to be determined, he said at a press conference today.

"I'm looking for another credible opponent," Williams said.

The fight will take place during round 16 of the Super 15, the same week the Crusaders have a bye.

Williams also announced today that he will personally donate $100,000 to the Red Cross Appeal for the Christchurch earthquake appeal. All proceeds from the pay-per-view bout will also go to the appeal.

"I earn a good living as a sportsman - I feel morally obliged," Williams said.

"I'm looking forward to getting in the ring again come June and I encourage everyone to get behind the fight by watching on Sky to help support Christchurch."

Williams is unbeaten in his previous three fights against Garry Gurr, Ryan Hogan and Scott Lewis.
