IBF featherweight champion Kid Galahad (28-1, 17 KOs) will make the maiden defense of his world title against former world champion Kiko Martinez (42-10-2, 29 KOs) at the Utilita Arena Sheffield on November 13. DAZN will carry the stream.
WBC female super featherweight ruler Terri Harper (11-0-1, 6 KOs) faces Alycia Baumgardner (10-1, 6 KOs) in the co-feature. European cruiserweight titlist Chris Billam-Smith (13-1, 10 KOs) will also see action.
Happy for Kiko, this could be a grand scrap!
Kiko just fought. Lately he hasnt been able to get the win when stepping up in competition. Kiko needs a punchers chance to win and I doubt he has that. He’s a perfect opponent to make an action TV friendly fight without a big risk. that’s why even with 10 losses he still get these title opportunities.
Sure there were plenty more names before him more deserving of a shot. Galahad obviously has good connection and was able to pick up the vacant IBF featherweight belt after losing when he fought Warrington for it. Now he gets a showcase on DAZN
