We have reached the fight before the main event, which features Badou Jack against Dervin Colina.
This was initially intended to be Jack against Jean Pascal, a rematch of the Pascal victory from December of 2019. But that was wiped off the slate when Pascal tested positive for multiple banned PEDs. So, on June 1, it was announced that Colina (15-0) will instead be facing Jack (23-3-3).
Unless the drop in competition causes Jack to let his guard down, this should be a one-sided affair.
Arias won the first four rounds, but Hurd showed life in the fifth. And he showed a considerable deal of flair in the sixth, capitalizing on an exhausted Arias.

Following a series of exhilarating fights at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, it is now time for Floyd Mayweather and Logan Paul to go toe-to-toe in the ring.
Putting all the noise that came ahead of the fight behind them, the boxing icon and YouTuber meet up for an unsanctioned exhibition bout. Both fighters will be wearing 10-ounce gloves for the eight, three-minute round fight. The rules in place note that no judges will be ringside, no winner or loser will be named by decision, knockouts are allowed.
It is interesting to note that at the official weigh-in, Floyd Mayweather stepped on the scale at 155 pounds while Logan Paul came in at 189.5 pounds. Although the weight limits set were 190 pounds (Paul) and 160 pounds (Mayweather), many did not expect Logan Paul to come in 30 pounds over his opponent.
