Jose Velasquez: record, next fight and profile →
Murodjon Akhmadaliev will now defend his WBA and IBF World Super-Bantamweight titles against José Velásquez at the SNHU Arena in Manchester, New Hampshire on Friday November 19, live worldwide on DAZN, after Ronny Rios was forced to withdraw with COVID.
The final Showtime boxing event of 2020 has a new date along with its entire lineup taking new shape from original form. Former four-division titlist Nonito Donaire aims for his third bantamweight reign as the legendary Fil-Am boxer faces Puerto Rico’s Emmanuel Rodriguez atop a Showtime tripleheader, which airs live December 19 from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut. The bout is the first for both boxers since their respective runs in the World Boxing Super Series (WBSS) bantamweight tournament in 2019.
