Today at 2 pm ET on Sky Sports in the UK and picking up at 4 pm ET in the U.S. on HBO, Luis Ortiz headlines against Malik Scott in a heavyweight battle, with two world title fights on the undercard.
Ortiz (25-0, 22 KO) is the heavy favorite against Scott (38-2-1, 13 KO), and rightfully so. The big Cuban is fighting for the first time since signing with Matchroom Boxing, and will look to keep up his impressive streak of knockouts.
The undercard will see Jamie McDonnell defend the WBA “world” bantamweight title against Liborio Solis, and Jason Sosa will make the first defense of his WBA super featherweight title against Stephen “Swifty” Smith. Those are the fights to really tune in to see, not just because they’re world title bouts, but because they’re more evenly matched than the main event.
We’ll be here with live coverage for the top three fights of the show.
