It's fight night fans, and we hope you'll join us for our live coverage of tonight's ESPN Friday Night Fights card from the Turning Stone Resort & Casino in Verona, New York.
It's a special night for boxing as one of its biggest stars will be making his return to the ring.
"Iron" Mike Tyson—the youngest heavyweight champion and possibly most feared fighter in history—has traded in his gloves for a promoters license, and his Iron Mike Promotions will be making its debut tonight in his native New York.
In the main event, IBF Super Featherweight Champion Argenis Mendez (21-2, 11 KO) will make his first defense against the tough Arash Usmanee (20-1, 10 KO).
The co-main event will feature a pair of young featherweight contenders hoping to make their mark in the division. The interim-WBA Featherweight Title will be on the line as Claudio Marrero (14-0, 11 KO) takes on Jesus Marcelo Andres Cuellar (22-1, 18 KO).
Stay tuned here at Bleacher Report for the live analysis and reaction. The action will air live on ESPN2 beginning at 9 PM/EST.
