Erickson Lubin makes his first appearance as a televised main event fighter as he faces Mexico's Jose Macias. Their scheduled 10-round super welterweight bout takes place Sunday evening at Seminole Casino in Immokalee, Florida, serving as the 2016 season debut of Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) on Bounce TV.
Lubin (13-0, 10KOs) - the 2015 BoxingScene.com Prospect of the Year - tipped the scales at an always shredded 154.6 lbs. Macias weighed in at 155.2 lbs. and will have two hours to shed the extra weight.

In the televised co-feature, Alex DeJesus faces Joseph Elegele in a matchup of southpaws on the comeback trail. DeJesus was 151 lbs., even in stripped down to his birthday suit, two pounds above the 149 lb. catchweight limit. Elegele was initially slightly above the contracted amount at 149.2 lbs., but removing his socks did the trick in getting down to the contracted limit.

Dennis Galarza left his Orlando home under the impression he would face Bence Molmar, only to learn once on site that he had a new opponent. Samual Amoako took the fight on one day's notice, with both fighters checking in at the 134 lb. catchweight limit.
All three bouts air live on Bounce TV, beginning at 9:00 p.m. ET.
