LAS VEGAS (Սեպտեմբեր 6, 2017) – Let’s play two! Boxing fans will have the rare opportunity to enjoy a boxing doubleheader with two separate live shows on different networks that will showcase five world championship matches from coast to coast on Շաբաթ, Հոկտեմբեր 14 presented by Premier Boxing Champions.
In the first show, sensational featherweight champion Առյուծ Santa Cruz (33-1-1, 18 Նոկաուտով) will defend his world title against Chris Avalos (27-5, 20 Նոկաուտով), while three-division world champion Աբներ Մարեսի (30-2-1, 15 Նոկաուտով) defends his 126-pound belt against once-beaten Andres Gutierrez (35-1-1, 25 Նոկաուտով) ժամը StubHub կենտրոնի Carson, California in primetime on FOX & FOX Deportes at 7:30 կեսօրից. ՈՒ/4:30 կեսօրից. PT.
Following that will be a scintillating 154-pound world championship tripleheader on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING live on SHOWTIME from Barclays Center in Brooklyn at 10 կեսօրից. ՈՒ/7 կեսօրից. PT.
Էրիսլանդի Լարա (24-2-2, 14 Նոկաուտով), arguably the most-skilled boxer in the division and the longest reigning world champion, will headline and defend his title against undefeated 2012 U.S. Olympian Terrell Gausha (20-0, 9 Նոկաուտով). Hard-hitting undefeated champion Jermell Charlo (29-0, 14 Նոկաուտով) will take on top contender Erickson Lubin (18-0, 13 Նոկաուտով) ժամանակ Jarrett Hurd (20-0, 14 Նոկաուտով) will make his first title defense against tough former world champion Austin Trout (30-3, 17 Նոկաուտով).
“It’s a common occurrence in Major League Baseball, the NFL and the NBA to be able to watch two or three games back-to-back on the same day, but it is rare in boxing to watch back-to-back live shows from two locations on the same day,” said Tim Smith, VP of Communications for Haymon Boxing. “This is a unique opportunity for boxing fans to watch two separate live cards on two different networks from both U.S. coasts, featuring five world championship matches in the 126-pound and 154-pound division – two of the hottest divisions in boxing. If you’re a boxing fan you’re going to want to get your popcorn ready for October 14.”
All five of the featured championship matches hold major significance in the future for the winners.
If Santa Cruz and Mares win their respective matches, they have both agreed to terms to meet in a highly anticipated rematch and featherweight title consolidation bout in early 2018. Santa Cruz won a hard-fought, narrow decision against Mares in 2015.
The 154-pound title tripleheader features four undefeated boxers and the very best the division has to offer. The winners in each match will face each other in the future to determine which one will eventually be the undisputed 154-pound world champion.
