Surprise! It's Toe-to-Toe Tuesday, the boxing series that thinks consistent schedules are for the weak. Bethlehem, Pennsylvania hosts Premier Boxing Champions this week as a quartet of fighters in need of a win take center stage on Fox Sports 1.
The main event pits Edner Cherry (34-7-2, 19 KO) against Lydell Rhodes (23-1-1, 11 KO), while Omar Douglas (16-0, 11 KO) faces Alexei Collado (19-1, 17 KO). I would ordinarily write a little blurb about each matchup, but Scott was cool enough to do my job for me earlier today.
Thanks, bro.
If you're too lazy to click that, as I often can be, Cherry vs. Rhodes pits the guy who in a just universe would be the IBF Lightweight Champion against a stalled prospect. Douglas vs. Collado, meanwhile, features two young men with some impressive finishes on their records but pressing questions about their respective ceilings.
Quick results and round-by-round coverage below.
