Claressa Shields vs Vanessa Lepage Joanisse Fight
Claressa Shields faces Vanessa Lepage Joanisse for the WBC World Female Heavyweight Title.
- Division/Weight: middle
- Claressa Shields record: 14-0
- Vanessa Lepage Joanisse record: 7-1
- Belts at stake: WBC World Female Heavyweight Title
Claressa Shields, undefeated in 14 matches with two knockouts, turned pro in 2016. Holding multiple middleweight titles, she last triumphed over Maricela Cornejo via unanimous decision. Considering her extensive title-holding experience and successful record, Shields seems well-prepared to face Joanisse in her class.
Vanessa Lepage Joanisse boasts a record of 7 wins and 1 loss with two knockouts since going pro in 2016. Her latest victory was a split decision against Abril Vidal, showcasing resilience against opponents with diverse experience. Nevertheless, facing the veteran prowess and string of championships held by Shields could pose a significant challenge for Joanisse.
Michel Rivera vs Hugo Alberto Roldan Fight
Michel Rivera faces Hugo Alberto Roldan in a super light bout.
- Division/Weight: super light
- Michel Rivera record: 25-1
- Hugo Alberto Roldan record: 22-2
- Belts at stake: N/A
Rivera turned pro in 2016 and holds a record of 25 wins with 14 by KO, losing only once. He defeated Sergey Lipinets in his last fight, demonstrating strong performance against an opponent with significant knockout power. Given this and considering Roldan's lower knockout ratio, Rivera has a power advantage that could play a critical role in this match.
Roldan has been professional since 2017 and has a record of 22 wins, 7 by knockout, and 2 losses. He lost to Batyrzhan Jukembayev recently via split decision. Rivera displays higher consistency and knockout power compared to Hugo's previous opponents. This dynamic points towards Rivera having an edge in the upcoming bout due to his superior boxing skill set and experience at finishing fights effectively.
Shohjahon Ergashev vs Julian Smith Fight
Shohjahon Ergashev faces Julian Smith in a super light class bout.
- Division/Weight: super light
- Shohjahon Ergashev record: 24-1
- Julian Smith record: 8-2
- Belts at stake: N/A
Shohjahon Ergashev turned professional in 2015 and has a strong record of 24 wins with 21 by KO, showcasing a KO rate of 87.5%. In his recent fight, he won against Juan Huertas who had less power compared to the previous challenging opponent Subriel Matias who deals harder hits; Ergashev's high KO rate may dominate against Smith’s performance which has been fluctuating.
Julian Smith turned pro in 2018, recording 8 wins with 5 KOs; his KO rate is 62.5%. His last fight was a win against Orestes Velazquez, with an uneven track record prior to that. Given Julian's varying performances against opponents with lesser records like Kevin Hayler Brown and stronger like Julio Rosa, Ergashev’s consistent power strikes might outpace Smith in their upcoming match.
Ernesto Mercado vs Jose A Gonzalez Fight
Ernesto Mercado faces Jose A Gonzalez in a super light class match, with no belts on the line.
- Division/Weight: super light
- Ernesto Mercado record: 15-0
- Jose A Gonzalez record: 26-2
- Belts at stake: N/A
Ernesto "Tito" Mercado, with an undefeated record of 15 wins and a 93.33% knockout rate since turning pro in 2021, last incapacitated Deiner Berrio in April 2024. Given Berrio's experience and decent track record, Mercado’s victory suggests his dominance will continue against Gonzalez, who faces challenges coming off a recent break.
Jose "Chelo" Gonzalez boasts an impressive career with 26 wins and an 80.77% knockout rate but has been inactive since mid-2022 when he knocked out Eder Espitia, whose performance was less than stellar at the time. Gonzalez's lengthy break could hinder his performance against the younger, more active Mercado.
Samantha Worthington vs Edina Kiss Fight
Samantha Worthington faces Edina Kiss in a non-title super light match.
- Division/Weight: super light
- Samantha Worthington record: 8-0
- Edina Kiss record: 16-20
- Belts at stake: N/A
Samantha Worthington turned pro in 2019 and boasts an unbeaten record of 8 wins, with 6 by knockout. She won decisively against the more experienced Yazmin Rivas recently. Her ability to win against older, seasoned opponents like Rivas indicates strong odds against Edina Kiss who has faced consecutive defeats.
Edina Kiss began her professional career in 2015, accumulating a record of 16 wins and 20 losses with 9 knockouts. Her last bouts resulting in losses, including a recent knockout defeat to Elia Carranza, suggest vulnerability. Comparing their recent forms, Samantha is positioned advantageously due to her consistent knockout power and undefeaten track record.
Gordie Russ II vs Josiah Shackleford Fight
Gordie Russ II faces Josiah Shackleford in a super welterweight bout.
- Division/Weight: super welter
- Gordie Russ II record: 6-1
- Josiah Shackleford record: 3-2
- Belts at stake: N/A
Gordie Russ II turned pro in 2021 and boasts a strong record of 6 wins, 1 loss, with all wins by knockout. He recently faced his first defeat against Junaid Bostan, an undefeated fighter with a high KO rate. Given this, Russ’s knockout ability should present a significant challenge to Shackleford, considering Shackleford’s recent losses to less established fighters.
Josiah Shackleford has a professional record of 3 wins and 2 losses since beginning his career in 2023. His two losses came against opponents with prolific early records. Facing Russ who has consistently won via knockout until a recent high-level match poses a steep uphill battle for Shackleford given his susceptibility to powerful hitters like Russ.
Cameran Pankey vs Shaileik Paisley Fight
Cameran Pankey will face Shaileik Paisley in a featherweight class bout with no titles on the line.
- Division/Weight: feather
- Cameran Pankey record: 9-1
- Shaileik Paisley record: 4-4
- Belts at stake: N/A
Cameran Pankey turned pro in 2020 and has a fight record of 9 wins (4 by KO) and 1 loss. His last fight, a loss to Juan Hernandez Martinez, was against an evenly matched opponent based on their records. Facing Shaileik Paisley who has equal losses but fewer wins and experience suggests Pankey might have the advantage with his slightly higher level of activity and match toughness.
Shaileik Paisley, also known as "Kutthroat," began his professional career in 2020 and stands with 4 wins (3 by KO) and 4 losses. His most recent bout was a unanimous decision loss to Rene Palacios, a notably strong fighter. This pattern shows that while Paisley can compete against promising fighters, his inconsistent win record may challenge him against Pankey, who has proven slightly more successful overall in recent fights.
Husam Al Mashhadi vs Bruno Leonardo Romay Fight
Husam Al Mashhadi is set to face Bruno Leonardo Romay in a super welterweight clash.
- Division/Weight: super welter
- Husam Al Mashhadi record: 9-1
- Bruno Leonardo Romay record: 22-13
- Belts at stake: N/A
Husam Al Mashhadi turned professional in 2021 and has an impressive record of 9 wins with only 1 loss, boasting an 88.89% knockout rate. His recent victory over Daulis Prescott, who has substantial experience, underscores his powerful punch and resilience. Drawing on Prescott's seasoned record, this matchup suggests Mashhadi's aggressive style will challenge Romay's durability.
Bruno Leonardo Romay has been professional since 2013, accumulating a record of 22 wins and 13 losses; his knockout win ratio stands at 86.36%. He recently lost to up-and-comer Tahmir Smalls by TKO, indicating potential issues handling fighters with high knockout power like Al Mashhadi. Given his recent fight outcomes against stronger opponents, Romay faces an uphill battle but could leverage his experience for strategic edge.
Danielle Perkins vs Christianne Fahey Fight
Danielle Perkins faces Christianne Fahey in a heavyweight clash with no titles on the line.
- Division/Weight: heavy
- Danielle Perkins record: 4-0
- Christianne Fahey record: 2-1
- Belts at stake: N/A
Danielle Perkins, known as "New Era," turned pro in 2020 and maintains a perfect record of 4-0 with 2 KOs. She last knocked out Timea Nagy, who had a evenly balanced fight record. Facing Christianne Fahey, who recently lost by split decision, Perkins might make use of her undefeated momentum and striking power to secure another victory, given Fahey's earlier difficulty against formidable opponents.
Christianne Faughery started her professional career in 2021 and has a record of 2-1 with both wins by knockout. Her recent loss to Mary Casamassa, an undefeated fighter with less knockout power, showed vulnerability that might be exploited by Perkins's aggressive style and superior knockout ratio in the upcoming bout.
