Listen Later

We're back after Labor Day Weekend off (and without much boxing) because two separate main events are happening in different Mexican cities Saturday. And, the WBC's top junior miiddleweight joins us too on the 'Big Fight Weekend Preview Podcast!"

Host T.J. Rives returns with insider Dan Rafael of his Fight Freaks Unite Substack and Newsletter to go over it all.

First, they preview Saturday's Matchroon main event in Los Mochis, Mexico on DAZN
Eduardo “Sugar” Nunez defends his IBF 130 lb. title vs. veteran Christopher Diaz. Is Nunez ready to rock and roll in this one in his hometown? Plus, what is waiting for him, if he does?
 
Then, a Preview of Satuday's Zanfer card in Nogales, Mexico, on ESPN Deportes in USA
Oscar Valdez returns vs. Ricky Medina, 10 rounds, lightweights. Does Oscar have much left?
 
Next it's big Dan's interview with junior middleweight contender Serhii Bohachuk
He risks his WBC 154 mandatory status, as he looks to avenge a 2021 TKO loss to Brandon Adams in a rematch on the upcoming Sept. 13 Canelo-Crawford undercard.

Then, some News

Super middleweight contender Jaime Munguia will not face any disciplinary action stemming from a positive drug test related to his unanimous decision win against Bruno Surace in their rematch on May 3; ruled contamination  I'm sorry what?! Dan has more.

A fight is in works between interim heavyweight titleholders Joseph Parker and Fabio Wardley for Oct. 25 at O2 in London. It's definitely a bigger risk for Parker, who stands to be elevated to full WBO champ or also get a shot a Oleksandr Usyk, Yet, he's fighting the big punching Wardley.

Next, lineal/WBO junior welterweight champion Teofimo Lopez and WBC lightweight titlist Shakur Stevenson have been in talks with Turki Alalshikh and his team about a fight targeted for a Riyadh Season card in January. It isn't done, yet, and is a hang up that one or both fighters might want the bout in the U.S.

There was a presser in LA on Wednesday to officially announce the October 25 "PBC on Prime Video" PPV at MGM Grand in Las Vegas:
--Sebastian Fundora vs. Keith Thurman, for Fundora’s WBC junior middleweight title--O’Shaquie Foster vs. Stephen Fulton, for Foster’s WBC junior lightweight title
--Jesus Ramos vs. Shane Mosley Jr., for vacant WBC interim middleweight title
--Isaac Lucero vs. TBA, 10 rounds, junior middleweights

The guys discuss the interesting parts of the presser and the bouts.

And, finally, Juan Orengo’s Fresh Productions, the promoter for WBC junior welterweight titlist Subriel Matias, won the purse bid on Tuesday for the promotional rights to his mandatory defense against Dalton Smith, so wont be on Turki Alashikh's big Nov 22 card in Riyadh.
