Middleweights Chris Eubank Jr. (28-2, 21 KOs) and Matt Korobov (28-2-1, 14 KOs) will square off for the WBA interim middleweight title on December 7 live on Showtime from Barclays Center, in Brooklyn, NY. Eubank-Korobov will be the co-main event to the clash between undefeated WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo defending his title against Dennis Hogan.
Eubank is coming off a win over British rival James DeGale in February will go down from the 168-pound to the 160-pound class to take on Korobov, a southpaw who gave Charlo a tougher than expected test as a late replacement last December at Barclays Center.
Acc to the rankings here the WBA already have 3 title holders so I guess one more doesn’t make any odds?
This is for the interim WBA title. So there’s the interim, the regular and the super. Got it?
Old boxing fan: “what the hell are you talkin about kid?”
Will this make a 4th fake WBA Champ? They are pathetic
