Seems like this fight just isn’t meant to be. Unified super bantamweight champion Murodjon Akhmadaliev’s WBA-mandated title defense against Ronny Rios already got pushed back once when “MJ” came down with COVID, and now it’s Rios who’s caught the virus just a week from fight night. “I hope that Ronny is feeling well, it’s a

Showtime has actually put together a pretty damn solid undercard for Gervonta Davis’ December 5th PPV main event against Isaac Cruz. As expected, Sebastian Fundora vs. Sergio Garcia serves as the co-feature, while Sergiy Derevyanchenko faces Carlos Adamaes in a clash of former title challengers and Eduardo Ramirez opens the show against Miguel Marriaga.

Ahead of their November 20th welterweight title fight, Top Rank has just unveiled the first episode of their promotional series Blood, Sweat and Tears, highlighting both fighters paths leading into what is expected to be an action-packed fight.
