1/30 – Jeff Lacy (27-5, 18 KO’s) vs. Sullivan Barrera (14- 0, 9 KO’s) – Foxwoods Resort, Mashantucket, Connecticut, USA This one’s part of the ESPN Friday Night Fights under card, and may or may not make the air. Lacy hasn’t had a significant win since his shellacking at the hands of Joe Calzaghe in 2006; his biggest wins coming against Peter Manfredo Jr. and Otis Griffin. After a second round loss to Umberto Savigne, ha managed an eight round decision over the 9-18 Timothy Hall Jr. at the end of 2014. Barrera’s won his last three inside the distance, at this point Lacy is more of a lateral move than a step up in competition. *For a full look at Friday Nights Broadcast, check out Fox Doucette’s preview HERE

1/31 – Francisco Rodriguez Jr. (16-2-1, 11 KO’s) vs. Jomar Fajardo (14-5-2, 7 KO’s) – Palenque de la Feria, Tuxtla Gutierrez, Chiapas, Mexico Former minimum-weight world champ Rodriguez and Fajardo fought to a draw two months ago after Rodriguez vacated the WBO and IBF belts and jumped up to the flyweight division.
