PBC on FS1 - Vasquez vs Lopez: Live streaming results and round by round coverage

Tonight at 9 pm EST on FOX Sports 1, Premier Boxing Champions is back again with a fight card from California, Pennyslvania, which is a fun thing to say, featuring welterweight Sammy Vasquez Jr in the main event against Mexico's Jose "Piston" Lopez.

Vasquez (19-0, 13 KO) has emerged as one of the more reliably entertaining TV fighters in boxing, a 5'10" southpaw who draws raucous crowds to his fights in Pennsylvania, particularly the Pittsburgh area. He's 2-0 in 2015, with wins over Emmanuel Lartei Lartey and Wale Omotoso.

Lopez (25-3-1, 15 KO) is no pushover, however. The 25-year-old has won eight straight fights after a 2012 loss to Humberto Soto, where Lopez was very competitive. He could be a young fighter starting to come into his own, and this matchup looks pretty interesting on paper.

The co-feature will pit super featherweight prospect Omar Douglas (14-0, 11 KO) against Braulio Santos (12-2, 10 KO) in a 10 round bout. Patrick L. Stumberg will be here with live round by round coverage.
