Friday, August 28th

Saturday, August 29th
ESPN+, 11:00 am ET MVPW-06 – Chantelle Cameron vs Mikaela Mayer
From Birmingham, England, to unify Mayer’s WBA and WBC and Cameron’s WBO super welterweight titles. Chief support is Caroline Dubois defending her WBC and WBO lightweight belts against Amelia Moore. Also, Terri Harper and Shannon Courtenay.
Moses Itauma vs Filip Hrgovic (DAZN Ultimate & DAZN PPV, 1:30 pm ET)
BLH will have live results and updates
From London, England, for the vacant IBF heavyweight title. Itauma is still just 21 years old, and the hot young hope for anyone looking forward to a new generation of great heavyweights. He obliterated Dillian Whyte in just under two minutes last August, and followed it up with a 5th round finish of Jermaine Franklin back in March. Hrgovic looked like a future champion five years ago, but “won” a decision over Zhilei Zhang in 2022 that many (if not most) observers had the other way, and got stopped by Daniel Dubois in 8 rounds back in 2024. Since then, he’s picked up wins against a cracked Joe Joyce and Davids Allen and Adeleye. Having worked his way alphabetically through all available UK heavyweights named David (Haye, presumably ducking a Hrgovic fight, remains retired), he’s back in another world title fight where most oddsmakers have him as a heavy underdog.
ON THE UNDERCARD: Constantin Ursu defends his British and Commonwealth welterweight titles against Ben Vaughan. Deeper on the card, a potential FOTYOTW matchup between Sam Noakes and Denis Berinchyk. Prelims start at 11 am ET, and feature Guido Vianello, among others.
Lester Martinez vs Luka Plantic (ProBox TV, 8:00 pm ET)
BLH will have live results and updates
From Los Angeles, California, for Martinez’s interim WBC super middleweight title. Excellent matchup between the beltholding Martinez and undefeated challenger Plantic, who fights in the USA for the first time.
ON THE UNDERCARD: Show starts at 5:30 pm ET, with ProBox regulars Najee Lopez and Ramon Cardenas listed as the chief supporting fights. Carlos Ocampo is another notable name on the night’s lineup.
DAZN, 8:00 pm ET Mauricio Lara vs Carlos Ornelas
From Guadalajara, Mexico. Lara continues the “headlining Mexico showcases against jobbers, club fighters, and journeymen” phase of his career. This marks his 7th fight in the last three years south of the border. And, if you recognize Ornelas, it’s probably from a loss to Abdullah Mason in support of Richard Torrez vs Guido Vianello back in early 2025. Nothing really of note on the undercard… If you’re interested and watching this, it’s to relive happier memories of Lara action fights from days past.
