Nisan. 16th “Knockout Night at the D” event will air Cumartesi gece, Nisan 16 (8 um. PT / 11 um. VE), canlı CBS Sports Network from under the neon lights at the DLVEC outdoor venue.

Claggett, as well as Van Heerden, are known as high-action fighters, throwing punches in bunches, and something eventually has to give. Van Heerden (23-1-1, 12 KOs), fighting out of Santa Monica (GİBİ), is a former International Boxing Organization (IBO) ve Uluslararası Boks Federasyonu (IBF) ağır siklet şampiyonu.
“Van Heerden is a rangy, quick and active fighter,” Claggett said. “I have an action style but, for many years, I was strictly a pressure fighter with a good body shot. Bu günlerde, gerçi, I have a couple of more tricks up my sleeve. His heart and durability have been shown and is to be respected. This match-up is sure to produce some good exchanges. I expect this to be a high-action fight between two hungry fighters with him coming off a loss (to unbeaten rising star Errol Spence Jr. geçen Eylül) and me coming off more than one fight falling through. This is a great match up. He is similar to the style of (Konstantin)Ponomarev (who Claggett lost an 8-round decision to last year) with range and movement. And that motivates me!”
