In the main event, Ireland’s Jason Quigley looks to continue his bounce-back from his first pro loss last year, facing late replacement opponent Fernando Marin in a fight technically at super middleweight, by virtue of a catchweight between 160 and 168.
Quigley was stopped after nine rounds last July against Tureano Johnson, and returned in December for a quiet comeback against a tune-up opponent. Tonight’s fight with Marin doesn’t figure to be much different; the 31-year-old from Mexico came in on just a few days’ notice, and hasn’t fought since last July, when he was stopped in three by Serhii Bohachuk. Marin is really a natural welterweight.
Quigley-Marin is set for 10 rounds.
In the co-feature, the always-fun Ferdinand Kerobyan will be back in an eight-round junior middleweight fight against Azael Cosio. The 22-year-old Kerobyan’s only loss came in a competitive decision against Blair Cobbs in Mar. 2019, and he’s won two straight since. The 38-year-old Cosio has lost five of his last six, four of those by stoppage.
29-year-old Romanian heavyweight Mihai Nistor will open the broadcast in an eight-round bout against Mexico’s Jaime Solorio. Solorio, 31, was a junior middleweight from 2008-10, then didn’t fight again until 2017 when he returned at super middleweight. He last fought in 2018, weighing about 183 pounds, and was 234 on the scales for this fight.
