Five fights were announced Thursday for a card in Las Vegas that will precede the Saul “Canelo” Alvarez vs. Terence Crawford super-fight.

Anthony Olascuaga will defend his WBO flyweight title against Juan Carlos Camacho Jnr on Thursday, September 11 at the Fontainebleau in Las Vegas, two days before Alvarez-Crawford. Olascuaga, 9-1 (6 KOs), of Los Angeles has made two defenses of the title he won in July of 2024, when he knocked out Riku Kano. The 26-year-old will be fighting in the United States for the first time since 2022 after five straight fights in Japan.

The 112lbs title fight will headline a new Ring Magazine series “The Underdog” which is set to highlight prospects and contenders.

Also announced for the card was a matchup between junior lightweight Justin Viloria, 9-0 (7 KOs), of Whittier, California against Joshafat Ortiz, 13-1 (6 KOs), of Reading, Pennsylvania in an eight-round fight. Viloria, 21, is a southpaw coming off his biggest win yet, a fourth round knockout of Alejandro Yung Wong in April, while the 29-year-old Ortiz has won two straight since losing a split decision to Carlos Rosario in April of 2023.

In a high stakes showdown between junior middleweights, Jalil Hackett, 9-1 (7 KOs), will meet Elijah Vines, 8-0 (7 KOs), in an eight-round fight. Hackett, 22, is coming off his first loss, a split decision against Jose Roman last December. Vines, 30, has been less busy in official fights, but was busy last year with Team Combat League.

Also scheduled for action is a showcase fight for Jamar Talley, a former Team USA member with a 3-0 (3 KOs) record. The Camden, New Jersey native, who has been spending time training with the Crawford camp, will face Isaiah Thompson, 11-4-2 (10 KOs), a 27-year-old from Fort Lauderdale, Florida in a six-round fight.

Rounding out the card, Emiliano Alvarado, 8-0 (5 KOs), of Palm Springs, California will face Juan Garcia, 7-0 (2 KOs), in a six-round showdown of junior featherweights taking their first significant steps-up.
