ShoBox: The New Generation is back with an Atlantic City tripleheader tonight, with Joseph Adorno returning in the main event against Hugo Alberto Roldan.
The card will air live on Showtime at 9 pm ET. John Hansen will take the call for us, with updates in the comments section.
Adorno, now 23, rode a three-fight two-draw-one-loss streak in 2020-22, also having some issues on the 135-pound scale. He is now fighting at 140 and looking to get his career back on track; He’s definitely young enough, and he’s won back-to-back low-level fights in Orlando on May 21 and July 23. This ShoBox appearance will be his attempt to take a crucial step back into the spotlight.
Roldan, 29, is unbeaten, and while the Argentine fighter hasn’t faced particularly tough competition to say the least, you never know if someone can fight at a certain level until they just go out there and fight at that level.
Also on the card: Bernard Angelo Torres meets Frency Fortunato in a 10-round featherweight bout, and Janelson Bocachica meets Roiman Villa in an eight-round welterweight bout.
