Former IBF and WBA super bantamweight champion Murodjon Akhmadaliev fights Ricardo Espinoza (30-4, 25 KOs_ in the 12-round headliner tonight, live on DAZN of the Salle des Étoiles, Monte Carlo. The event starts at 1:30pm ET. Both fighters will fight for the WBA interim belt.
Road to Inoue
2016 Olympic bronze medalist Akhmadaliev (12-1, 9 KOs) is trying to get a chance against undisputed 122-pound champion Naoya Inoue, who has shown zero interest in fighting him, options for easier targets.
If Akmadaliev, 30, emerges victorious tonight, he will retain the interim WBA belt and could force the reluctant “Monster” Inoue to fight him or vacate his WBA title.
Also on tonight’s card, cruiserweight Chearon Clarke (10-0, 7 KOs) takes on Leonardo Mosquea (15-0, 9 KOs) for the vacant EBU belt in a 12-round contest at the joint function.
