We got some pretty good fights going down in boxing today.
First off, we have Zhang Zhilei vs Joe Joyce 2. Big old heavyweight fight, literally. WBO interim heavyweight title up for grabs. Also, Anthony Yarde on the undercard. For my fellow Americans, card starts around 2pm ET on ESPN+.
On the second card, from Orlando, we have rising super lightweight prospect Richardson Hitchins taking on former world title challenger Jose Zepeda. Zepeda is a recent opponent of champion Regis Prograis so a win would be a huge boost for the rising Hitchins. On the undercard, we have a fight for the title of undisputed at women’s welterweight. Jessica McCaskill will attempt to win her 4th belt back as she faces newly crowned champion Sandy Ryan. Also Conor Benn makes his first appearance since popping for PED use. Card starts at 8pm ET.
