Light heavyweight main event from Montreal. Venezuela\u2019s Ramirez is a fringe contender, Flannery is a UK guy coming over.<\/p>\n<p>Friday, June 6<\/p>\n<p id=\"5doaln\"><strong>DAZN<\/strong>, 8:00 pm ET, <strong>Brandon Moore vs Stanley Wright<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p id=\"KN3HTM\"><strong>DAZN<\/strong>, 9:00 pm ET, <strong>Khalid Twaiti vs Emanuel Moreno<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday, June 7<\/p>\n<p id=\"n5GoJa\"><strong>DAZN and Social Media<\/strong>, 11:30 am ET, <strong>Wardley vs Huni prelims<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4enjog\"><strong>DAZN<\/strong>, 2:00 pm ET, <strong>Fabio Wardley vs Justis Huni<\/strong>. Taking place at Ipswich Town\u2019s home ground, Portman Road. Wardley\u2019s a big fan so it\u2019s a neat deal for him. Huni stepped in as a replacement and is taking his own big crack at something here. I like the fight and Wardley is a really entertaining fighter to watch. Dillian Whyte will supposedly be on the undercard, along with Lewis Richardson\u2019s pro debut and a European 140 lb title fight between Pierce O\u2019Leary and Liam Dillon, plus more. <strong>BLH will have live coverage<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p id=\"SUVgVM\"><strong>ESPN+<\/strong>, 5:10 pm ET, <strong>Davis vs De Los Santos prelims<\/strong>. Troy Isley, Tiger Johnson, Euri Cedeno, and Keyshawn Davis\u2019 brothers in action.<\/p>\n<p id=\"SClHiO\"><strong>DAZN<\/strong>, 8:00 pm ET, <strong>Thomas O\u2019Toole vs Laurent Humes<\/strong>. DAZN are listing Humes as the opponent, BoxRec have Vaughn Alexander. It doesn\u2019t really matter. The fights are at Fenway Park, which is cool. Abraham Nova is also on the card.<\/p>\n<p id=\"Kktprz\"><strong>DAZN<\/strong>, 8:00 pm ET, <strong>Labinot Xhoxhaj vs Mourad Aliev<\/strong>. Look, this is what DAZN are listing as the time right now. But it\u2019s a fight in Germany, so, seems unlikely. Or maybe they only have a replay for a few hours delay? I don\u2019t know. Good matchup on paper, though. <\/p>\n<p id=\"6piEAx\"><strong>DAZN<\/strong>, 8:30 pm ET, <strong>Beatriz Ferreira vs Maria Ines Ferreyra<\/strong>. Ferreira \u2014 the first one, to be extra clear, Beatriz \u2014 is one of the best in the sport and defends her lightweight belt. Another MVP card from the Caribe Royale, lots of prospects in action on the undercard. Not the greatest prospects, but MVP have taken a couple of smart paths for building their company. They\u2019ve all but consolidated high-end women\u2019s boxing, which is cornering a niche, and also they are stockpiling the types of prospects that might become something with decent backing. Many won\u2019t, but the few that do pan out will make up for those who don\u2019t. Golden Boy did this for years when they couldn\u2019t afford blue chip guys. You give people a chance to earn it.<\/p>\n<p id=\"8nSxBE\"><strong>ESPN and ESPN+<\/strong>, 10:00 pm ET, <strong>Keyshawn Davis vs Edwin De Los Santos<\/strong>. How should Edwin De Los Santos be rewarded for his role in an all-time stinker against Shakur Stevenson? Why, with another title shot, in a main event on the same network that was embarrassed by that fight! But you have to admit he\u2019s definitely earned it, going undefeated since then. He\u2019s also gone winless, as he hasn\u2019t fought since November 2023. To be fair, De Los Santos isn\u2019t always that impossible to watch, and Davis doesn\u2019t fight like Shakur. The point will be, I guess, trying to make clear that Davis is the REAL young star of the division, not the Top Rank-departed Stevenson. Abdullah Mason takes on Jeremia Nakathila. <strong>BLH will have live coverage<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday, June 8<\/p>\n<p id=\"Wwfq43\"><strong>ESPN+<\/strong>, 4:00 am ET, <strong>Junto Nakatani vs Ryusuke Nishida<\/strong>. Bantamweight title unification from Tokyo. Nakatani will be a big favorite, because he\u2019s pound-for-pound material. Nishida\u2019s a good fighter and it\u2019s a fight that makes obvious sense. Tenshin Nasukawa returns on the undercard. <strong>BLH will have live coverage<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p id=\"PwwOQM\"><strong>DAZN<\/strong>, 5:00 am ET, <strong>Jai Opetaia vs Claudio Squeo<\/strong>. Not the fight Opetaia (or anyone) wanted (maybe Squeo), but an Opetaia fight all the same. Feel free to chat about this in the live post for the Nakatani show, I\u2019m sure we\u2019ll all be dual screening.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Thursday, June 5 ESPN+, 7:00 pm ET, Albert Ramirez vs Michael Alan Flannery.
