Guillermo Rigondeaux and Terry Flanagan defend world titles, and Liam Williams faces Gary Corcoran in a big domestic showdown.
This afternoon in Cardiff, Wales, super bantamweight champion Guillermo Rigondeaux returns to the ring for the first time since November, defending his WBA title against British champion Jazza Dickens. Live coverage on BoxNation (UK) will begin at 1 p.m. ET.
Rigondeaux (16-0, 10 KO) has fought just two times in the last two years. He parted ways with Top Rank and is now with Roc Nation, who promoted him for his last bout, a win over Drian Francisco on the Cotto-Canelo card. Dickens (22-1, 7 KO) is a massive underdog here, but has won his last six fights.
Undercard
Liam Williams (14-0-1, 9 KO) will defend the British and Commonwealth junior middleweights titles against Gary Corcoran (15-0, 6 KO), and Terry Flanagan (30-0, 12 KO) will defend the WBO lightweight title against Mzonke Fana (38-9, 16 KO). Also in action will be welterweight Bradley Skeete (23-1, 10 KO), as he’ll faces Alexandre Lepelley (19-6-1, 4 KO), and middleweight Tommy Langford (16-0, 5 KO), taking on Timo Laine (15-6, 4 KO).
