Saturday, July 27 – O2 Arena, London
Joe Joyce vs. Derek Chisora - heavyweight – 12 rounds
We live in a great era for British heavyweight boxing. Shiny, bright, funny and fun, for the most part. They are a promoter's dream, and they never fail to produce exciting pre-battle builds followed by a nasty clash most of the time. This one should continue that tradition. It's always good in boxing when the big boys are out there getting attention from the odd and die-hard fans alike. It should be fun to watch.
Also on this card:
Dennis McCann vs. Ionut Baluta – junior featherweight – 12 rounds
Ryan Garner vs. Archie Sharp – junior lightweight – 10 rounds
Moses Itauna vs. Mariusz Wach – heavyweight – 10 rounds
Raven Chapman vs. Yohana Sarabia – women's featherweight – 10 rounds
Sean Noakes vs. Inder Bassi – welterweight – 10 rounds
Brandun Lee vs. Juan Anacona – junior welterweight – 8 rounds
Aadam Hamed vs. Georgi Velichkov – junior welterweight – 4 rounds

Saturday, July 27 – Little Caesars Arena, Detroit
Vanessa Lepage-Joanisse vs. Claressa Shields – light heavyweight – 10 rounds
Yes, we've seen this before. Sugar Ray Leonard vs. The Donny Lalonde fiasco had the same ingredients: a fighter with a big personality trying to add two lines to his resume in one fight, getting two titles in one day's work. This will be no different as they will fight for Lepage-Joanisse for the WBC Women's Heavyweight title and the vacant WBO light heavyweight title at the same time. Indeed, Shields' commitment to being a GWOAT did not require this cheap strategy. But his desire and the greed of the two penal agencies in question, which do not have very small fines, allowed this to happen. It should be a good fight, though.
Also on this card:
Shohjahon Ergashev vs. Julian Smith – junior welterweight – 10 rounds
Michel Rivera vs. Hugo Alberto Roldan – junior welterweight – 10 rounds
Ernesto Mercado vs. Hector Edgardo Sarmiento – junior welterweight – 10 rounds
Camera Pankey vs. Shaileik Paisley – featherweight – 6 rounds
