By Scott Gilfoid: U.S boxing fans are going to be in for a real treat with the August 9th heavyweight match-up between Deontay Wilder (28-0, 28 KO’s) and Siarhei Liakhovich (25-5, 16 KO’s) being televised by Showtime from the Fantasy Springs Casino, in Indio, California, USA.
The Wilder-Liakhovich fight will be the main event on the card with light middleweight Jarmall Charlo facing Antwone Smith and lightweight Francisco Vargas facing Brandon Bennett in undercard fights.
This is a nice little card if I do say so myself. Some of these guys are heading for stardom in the near future. Deontay is a can’t miss future star, and Vargas and Charlo are going places as well.
