ESPN+, 2:00 pm ET, Joe Joyce vs Derek Chisora. Additionally airing on TNT Sports activities within the UK. Might be a slugfest, might be a slog. Appears an admission from inside that Joyce will not be going to be a critical contender once more. Chisora’s misplaced 4 of six however these losses have been to Usyk, Parker (twice), and Fury, so, like, three of the present prime 4 heavyweights on the earth. He’s not good at this level, however he tends to grind out wins when the opponent isn’t elite. BLH could have reside updates.
DAZN, 9:00 pm ET, Claressa Shields vs Vanessa Lepage-Joanisse. Shields is out of issues to do in boxing as a result of she’s crushed everybody there may be to beat. On this one, she fights for a “heavyweight title” and a “gentle heavyweight title,” two divisions that functionally don’t exist in ladies’s boxing. Shields hasn’t stopped anybody in seven years however I’m positive the promise of the elusive TKO might be a part of the pre-fight discuss. The undercard is fairly uninteresting on paper, however Shields sells tickets in Detroit, they aren’t going to spend cash on the remainder of the present. BLH could have reside updates.
