Oscar Duarte and Kenneth Sims Jr are set to face off in a welterweight boxing match. The fight will take place on August 2, 2023, at the Credit Union 1 Arena in Chicago.

Duarte, a Mexican boxer with a knockout rate of almost 80%, comes in as the favorite. He's known for his punching power and aggressive style. His last performance was dominant, setting the stage for an exciting bout.

Sims Jr, the hometown fighter from Chicago, brings a record of 22-2-1 with 8 knockouts. He'll have the advantage of fighting in front of his local crowd, which should fill the 9,500-seat arena. Sims Jr is eager to cause an upset and might try to slow down Duarte's aggressive pace, turning the fight into a tactical battle.

Golden Boy Promotions is putting on the event as part of the world boxing summer calendar. The main event ring walk is scheduled for 22:30 Central Time, which means it'll be in the early hours of Sunday, August 3, for those in the Eastern United States.

DAZN will broadcast the fight for subscribed users in the United States and Mexico. While there's no title on the line, both fighters have a lot to prove in this high-caliber matchup.

The length of the preliminary bouts could affect the start time of the main event. Fans should tune in early to catch all the action from this promising night of boxing in Chicago.
