Matchroom Boxing is back in Nottingham today, with Maxi Hughes taking on Kid Galahad in a short-notice main event, taking the spot that was previously meant to be the Leigh Wood vs. Mauricio Lara fight.
The fights will air live on DAZN starting at 2pm ET (7pm BST), with prelims at 12:15 or 12:30pm.
Hughes is on a roll and Galahad is coming off a loss late last year to Kiko Martinez, and Galahad is also jumping two divisions here, from featherweight to lightweight, which is risky, but his team will be a calculated risk.
Also on the card: Hannah Rankin defends her IBF 154-pound title against former 130-pound titlist Terri Harper (none of that is a typo), and several prospects are in action, including heavyweight Solomon Dacares and cruiserweight Cheavon Clarke.
John Hansen will be covering the fights today, with updates and such coming in the comments section of this post.
