Welterweight bragging rights are on the line when prized star Vergil Ortiz Jr. challenges Serhii Bohachuk for the interim WBC super welterweight title.
Ortiz (21-0) has a 100% knockout-to-win ratio. The four-time gold medalist and 2016 Golden Gloves winner has fought sparingly over the years after suffering from rhabdomyolysis . He made up for lost time by going 2-0 in 2024 and looks for another win before the end of the year.
Bohachuk (24-1) won the interim super welterweight title against Brian Mendoza in March . The Ukrainian is on a six-fight win streak, winning all but one fight via knockout.
The co-main event will see Charles Conwell (19-0) vs. Khiary Gray (18-6). Conwell competes on his second Golden Boy card and second fight of 2024 after missing all of 2023. The once-Olympic hopeful faces someone in Gray with 13 wins via knockout and on a two-fight win streak.
