Upset specialist Nathaniel Gallimore (18-1-1, 15 KOs) will face Justin DeLoach (17-1, 9 KOs) this Sunday. The fight was confirmed by his manager Andrew Zak CEO Journeyman Management and Alex Vaysfeld of Union Boxing Management. The bout will be fought at a catchweight of 156 pounds and is scheduled for 10 rounds.
Gallimore upset unbeaten Jeison Rosario in his last fight ironically on FS1. He got the call for this fight just a few days ago after the original opponent fell out. Gallimore, fortunately, was already in training for another fight. Once again he will enter as the underdog but that is nothing new for him.
“I was born an underdog. This is my time to shine and I will do so on Sunday,” said Gallimore.
Gallimore’s management stablemate Adam Lopez (7-0, 3 KOs) will face unbeaten Paul Romero (7-0-1, 1 KO). The bout is a scheduled for 6 round television swing bout. The contracted weight will be 124 pounds. Lopez like Gallimore is coming off of a big upset having defeated then unbeaten Jordan White in his last bout.
