Fulghum vs. Melikuziev: Starting time, where to see, place and full fight card

Darius Fulghum, originally from Houston, Silver Olympic Medalist 2016, Bektemir Melikuziev, in an average WBA weight removal, on Friday, May 30 in Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, streaming Live in Dazn At 21:00 ET / 18:00 PT / 2:00 of the United Kingdom.

If you have never heard of Fulghum, you are not alone, but if you beat Melikuziev, you are obliged to the Canelo dumping, whether the fans like it or not.

Fighters speak before the removal of May 30

“There will be separation in the Super Middleweight Division,” said Fulghum, noting that the Caleb plant fights the next day. “Canelo holds all the letters.” He is not wrong: Alvarez, who has just overcome William Scull, has four mandatory defenses if they do not retire after Crawford’s struggle in September.

Meanwhile, Melikuziev searched David Stevens last time, and now has to resist a Fulghum who has stopped 12 of his 14 opponents. This is not a cash or permanent money concert: this is the territory of doing so in a division that awaits a change of power.

The Fulghum road has been traditional here. Ex -National Campi Golden Gloves won a nursing title as he stacked during Covid. Melikuziev was an Olympic decorated with support: Fulghum built his resume fighting under the radar.

They are now gathering with the WBA removal on the line, and Canelo’s waiting room begins to be overpopulated.

Stakes, chaos and what happens after

The winner becomes a compulsory threat, in the worst of the first five places in the ass for whom he survives Canelo’s policy. No. 1 Christian Mbilli will be considering to face Maciej Sulecki for vacancy WBC title. No. 2 Lester Martinez has a great deal of depth. The Caleb plant could lose in front of Restenz. This is Fulghu and Melikuziev’s opportunity to jump -the line.

And don’t forget: Fulghum works with the same management group supporting Zurdo Ramirez and Oleksandr GVOZDYK. This is not a clueless regional hope: this is a type with a system, a plan and a real case for the containment of the title.

If Fulghum wins? Either it forces an obligation or shouts the bluff to everyone who stood ahead. If Melikuziev wins? It barely maintains the pace and remains relevant in a thin-slimming top-10.

This is not a bombo. This is a blood business at 168 pounds.
