It’s official. The Oct. 17 lightweight unification showdown between WBC Franchise/WBA/WBO world champion Vasiliy “Loma” Lomachenko and IBF kingpin Teofimo Lopez from the MGM Grand Las Vegas “Bubble”— now has a two-course undercard.
In the 10-round junior welterweight co-feature, former world title challenger Alex Saucedo will fight unbeaten contender Arnold Barboza Jr.
The televised opener will see super middleweight knockout sensation Edgar Berlanga test his perfect record against veteran Lanell Bellows in an eight-rounder. Berlanga (14-0, 14 KOs) has won all 14 of his professional fights by first-round stoppage.
This may be the best and most exciting card of the year! An on ESPN… Can’t wait!
I just got an email from DAZN stating Julio Caesar Chavez JR returns! Think I’ll save the $20 a month and grab a few six packs for this fantastic card!
Still can’t get over how boxing events have to be held in a “bubble” because of, you know, all the neurotic germaphobes out there.
Who gives a damn as long as we have fights. UFC is doing just fine in a “bubble “.
The master will school the student! I’m calling Loma tko over lopez in 10! Daddy lopez will throw in towel.
No clay collard ?
