On January 13, the Centre Videotron in Quebec is set to host a major boxing event headlined by Artur Beterbiev defending his unified world light heavyweight championship against former super middleweight champion and current top contender Callum Smith. This much-anticipated matchup is just one of several championship bouts scheduled for the evening.
In addition to Beterbiev vs. Smith, Christian Mbilli will defend his WBC Continental Americas title against Rohan Murdock. Jason Moloney aims to capture the WBO world bantamweight title from Saul Sanchez. Imam Khataev gets a shot at his first professional title, the NABF, against Rodolfo Gomez Jr.
The event also features rising prospects and veterans, including Leila Beaudoin, Wilkens Mathieu, Christopher Guerrero, Mehmet Unal, and Moreno Fendero. Beaudoin is set for a rematch against Elizabeth Chavez Espinoza, who handed her the only loss of her career. Mathieu, celebrating his 19th birthday, looks forward to fighting in his hometown. Guerrero, aiming for his sixth straight KO victory, will face Sergio Garcia Herrera. Unal and Fendero are also scheduled for exciting bouts in their respective divisions.
