Tonight at 8:30 pm ET on FOX, Premier Boxing Champions is back with a tripleheader of action from El Paso, Texas, with a trio of 10-round bouts, headlined by a welterweight clash between Josesito Lopez and Miguel Cruz.
Lopez (35-7, 19 KO) is at a must-win state in his career, as the 33-year-old veteran looks to stay relevant in the crowded 147-pound division. Cruz (17-0, 11 KO) is a rising prospect, and the 27-year-old is taking a big step up in competition here.
Former super middleweight titleholder Anthony Dirrell (31-1-1, 24 KO) will also be in action, facing Abie Han (26-3-1, 16 KO). Dirrell has won four straight, while Han is coming off of a draw against J’Leon Love.
The third fight is a featherweight bout between Jorge Lara (29-0-2, 21 KO) and Claudio Marrero (22-2, 16 KO). Lara is looking to get into a possible title fight sooner than later, while Marrero is coming off of a knockout loss to Jesus Rojas.
