Featherweight contender Tugstsogt “King Tug” Nyambayar (12-2, 9 KOs) will now take on Sakaria Lukas (25-1, 17 KOs) in the 10-round telecast opener live on Showtime this Saturday from Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City, N.J.

The telecast is headlined by WBC featherweight champion Gary Russell Jr. defending his title against Mark Magsayo. Also, cuper lightweights Subriel Matías and Petros Ananyan meet for a rematch in the 12-round co-main event.
The non-televised undercard will include unbeaten super welterweight Evan Holyfield (8-0, 6 KOs), son of legendary heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield, taking on Chris Rollins (5-3-1, 4 KOs) in a six-round fight, plus featherweight Rasheen Brown (11-0, 7 KOs) against Katsuma Akitsugi (7-0, 1 KO).
Rounding out the lineup is Abimael Ortiz (9-1-1, 5 KOs) in an eight-round super bantamweight bout, unbeaten middleweight LeShawn Rodríquez (12-0, 9 KOs) against Sixto Suazo (9-2-1, 7 KOs) for eight-rounds of action and the pro debut of Max Garland in a four-round welterweight contest.
