It's fight night, fans, and we hope you'll join us for our live coverage Saturday night from the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas.
In our huge main event, WBA welterweight champion Adrien "The Problem" Broner (27-0, 22 KO) defends his title against hard-charging Argentine Marcos "El Chino" Maidana (34-3, 31 KO).
Broner hopes to become the face of the sport once his idol Floyd Mayweather hangs up the gloves. He's supremely talented, but he'll be facing an opponent who is as tough as they come, refuses to be intimidated and seems most dangerous when the odds are against him. Make no mistake, this is a huge test.
In our co-featured bout of the evening, rising welterweight star Keith "One Time" Thurman (21-0, 19 KO) faces by far his most dangerous foe in the form of Jesus Soto Karass (28-8-3, 18 KO).
Thurman is a knockout specialist who places immense pressure on his foe, but Soto Karass is substantially better than his record would indicate, and he'll be extremely dangerous.
In our opening contest, WBC super bantamweight champion Leo Santa Cruz (25-0-1, 15 KO) puts both his belt and his undefeated mark on the line against Cesar Seda (25-1, 17 KO).
It's shaping up to be a very exciting night of boxing. Our live coverage will being here at 8 p.m. ET, and you can catch all the action live on Showtime.
