Aside from Paul-Chavez, the most interesting fights on the card are Holm-Vega, Schofield-Farmer, and Ramirez-Dorticós.
The latter, which serves as the co-main event, will see Ramirez attempt to unify the cruiserweight titles as he takes on the hard-punching Dorticós. Ramirez is one of the most underrated fighters in the sport, but he’ll be getting arguably the largest audience of his career on Saturday as he leads viewers into Paul-Chavez.
Holm returns to boxing after a long and successful run in mixed martial arts. She is the only fighter to become a legitimate world champion in both sports. At 43, we’ll see if she still has the goods to win in boxing.
Schofield is a polarizing young boxing star headed for the stiffest test of his career in Farmer. The latter is a former world champion and one of the toughest outs in the weight region. I’ll be live blogging the entire event.
