Lomachenko vs. Rigondeaux fight card: Full list of undercard matches
Vasyl Lomachenko and Guillermo Rigondeaux headline an exceptional card with a packed undercard on Saturday.
Both boxers are two-time Olympic gold medalists and both are heralded as some of the most technically impressive fighters of all time. The television broadcast will begin at 9 p.m. ET on ESPN, with live streaming available online at WatchESPN. The televised card will feature four bouts, while another three will be streamed on WatchESPN and the ESPN App beginning at 7:30 p.m.
The historic headline bout is backed up by a slew of excellent matchups. Mikaela Mayer will try and reach 3-0 as a professional when she battles Nydia Feliciano on the streamed preliminary card, while U.S. Olympic silver medalist Shakur Stevenson will open up the television broadcast up against Oscar Mendoza.
Stevenson is 3-0 as a professional and is favored in his six-round bout. Following that, the televised broadcast will see top-10 contender Christopher Diaz taking on Casey Ramos as he looks for win No. 22 for his career.
Finally, the very impressive Irish Olympian, Michael Conlan, will take on Luis Fernando Molina in the co-feature before the main event takes place. Two other bouts will take place on the streamed undercard, which you can see the details of below.
The undercard is solid, but the main event is one of the best the sport has ever seen. Rigondeaux owns Olympic gold medals for Cuba from the 2000 Sydney and 2004 Athens games, while Lomachenko took home gold for Ukraine in the 2008 Beijing and 2012 London games.
They are some of the most technically-gifted boxers in the world, and Saturday’s bout should have fans of that style of boxing literally salivating.
