We have 5 fights on the line this week, including a women's showdown between super-bantamweights Shantall Martinez and Jackie Nava.
Also on the game-sheet is the FNF double-header, with Ruslan Provodnikov taking on David Torres, and Ji-Hoon Kim going up against Yakubu Amidu. In the UK, Carl Frampton squares off against Kris Hughes, and in an off-TV American bout, Cory Spinks takes on Sechew Powell in a match-up of fighters looking to get back in contention.
