11/28 – Rakhim Chakhkiev (20-1, 15 KO’s) vs. Jackson Junior (15-1, 13 KO’s) – Luzhniki, Moscow, Russia
Since last year’s loss to Krzysztof Wlodarczyk, Chakhkiev has racked up four wins (three by stoppage), and won the WBC silver and EBU cruiserweight titles. Working his way back into world title contention, he faces the former WBO Latino light heavyweight title holder, Brazilian Jackson Junior, who comes in off his first loss to Vasily Lepikhin just three weeks ago.
11/29 – Luis Alberto Lazarte (50-11-2, 18 KO’s) vs. Elias David Coronel (5-7, 1 KO) – Club Atlético, Social y Deportivo Camioneros, Buenos Aires, Distrito Federal, Argentina
Lazarte is the former IBF light flyweight champion and minimum-weight world title challenger. After a failed attempt to regain the IBF title in 2012, he was inactive for over two years but returned this past July to win an eight round contest. He fights for the vacant WBC Latino flyweight title against a severely overmatched opponent.
11/29 – Vivian Harris (32-9-2, 19 KO’s) vs. Ramon Alvarez (20-4-2, 12 KO’s) – Modulo Comude, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Mexico
Seventeen year pro and former world light welterweight champion Harris comes into this one off two big upsets over prospect Danny O’Connor and Jorge Paez Jr. He’s looking to pick up his first title in 10 years when he faces Alvarez for the vacant IBF North American light middleweight title. Alvarez is the current WBO NABO light middleweight title, and comes in off a win over Omar Chavez in September.
11/29 – Harry Simon (29-0, 21 KO’s) vs. Francis Cheka (30-8-2, 16 KO’s) – Kuisebmond Stadium, Walvis Bay, Namibia
Simon had a nice run as the WBO light middleweight champion in the late 90’s and early 2000’s, but after winning the WBO middleweight title in 2002, has fought in spurts, fighting just six times over the last 12 years. He won the vacant IBF International light heavyweight title in his last outing, and fights for the vacant WBU German version light heavyweight title when he meets Cheka, who has held regional titles as a middleweight and super middleweight, and is the former WBF world super middleweight champ. His last two bouts were a stoppage loss and an eight round draw, both coming against undefeated opponents.
11/29 – Steve Collins Jr. (3-0-1) vs. TBA – ExCel Arena, Dockland, London, United Kingdom
Son of the former super middleweight champion still needs an opponent for his bout on the Fury-Chisora under card.
11/29 – Chris Eubank Jr. (18-0, 13 KO’s) vs. Billy Joe Saunders (20-0, 11 KO’s) – ExCel Arena, Dockland, London, United Kingdom
Eubank steps up in a big way to challenge Saunders for his three middleweight titles: the EBU European, BBBofC, and Commonwealth British Empire titles are all on the line. Peter Silkov will be previewing this bout in further detail for the site.
11/30 – Sonny Boy Jaro (37-13-5, 27 KO’s) vs. Arjet Caballes (6-31-5, 3 KO’s) – Angono Sports Complex (Angono Municipal Gym), Barangay Mahabang , Angono, Rizal, Philippines
After his huge WBC world flyweight title win over Pongsaklek Wonjongkam in 2012, Jaro lost the title and pretty faded away. Not a whole lot say about his opponent, except that he’s winless in is last 12 bouts.
