Isaac Cruz vs. Lamont Roach – Large Fight Preview and Predictions
Isaac Cruz defends his interim WBC super lightweight title for a second time, and Lamont Roach changes weight to face him this Saturday in San Antonio.
Premier Boxing Champions is promoting Cruz vs Roach at the Frost Bank Center, and the card is available on Amazon Prime pay-per-view.
Cruz (28-3-1, 18 KO), who burst onto the scene in 2021 after a narrow loss to Gervonta Davis, had his career derailed last August after losing to Jose Valenzuela by split decision.
The first loss of his career came just over four months after arguably the best victory of his career over Rolando Romero.
“Pitbull” won his last two fights, defeating Angel Fierro and then Omar Salcido Gomez one last time to claim the WBC interim crown.
Roach (25-1-2, 12 KO) will once again move up in the league to challenge the 27-year-old Mexican.
“The Reaper,” who remains the WBA super featherweight champion, has been retained controversial draw with the aforementioned Davis in a WBA lightweight title fight in January, and many believe Washington did enough to win that fight.
Davis activated his rematch clause and the second fight was expected to take place in August, but Davis instead chose to face Jake Paul at the event, which was subsequently canceled.
Lara faces Gonzalez after Janibek withdraws
Erislandy Lara defends his WBA middleweight world title against replacement Johan Gonzalez, who agreed to step into the fight with the Cuban on four days’ notice.
Lara (31-3, 19 KO) was supposed to face Janibek Alimkhanuly in the long-awaited middleweight unification, but on Tuesday the Kazakhstan received unfavorable analytical results in the VADA test and was withdrawn from the fight.
Gonzalez (36-4, 34 KO) was reportedly on standby in a scenario where Janibek and Lara were unable to fight, and now he gets a shot at the world title.
The 34-year-old bounced back from a loss to Yoenis Tellez by defeating Jarrett Hurd, who defeated Lara in 2018, by split decision in March.
Lara, 41, who has been boxing professionally for 17 years, has been enjoying the Indian summer but has been out of the ring for more than a year since Danny Garcia retired after nine rounds.
Foster-Fulton are fighting for the world title
In an intriguing super featherweight bout, O’Shaquie Foster defends his WBC world title against Stephen Fulton.
The pair was supposed to fight in October at the Sebastian Fundora vs. Keith Thurman gala, but the entire gala was postponed due to Fundora’s injury.
Foster (23-3, 12 KO) reigns as WBC champion for a second time after losing his belt in a controversial split decision loss to Robson Conceicao and then gaining revenge on the Brazilian in an immediate rematch.
Fulton (23-1, 8 KO) is aiming to become a three-weight world champion, having already won super bantamweight and featherweight titles.
The Philadelphia fighter had won two in a row since an eighth-round loss to Naoya Inoue before putting on an impressive showing to take the WBC featherweight crown from Brandon Figueroa in a rematch in February.
Ramos Jr meets Mosley Jr
In the next fight for the WBC interim title, Jesus Ramos Jr faces Shane Mosley Jr in the middleweight division.
Ramos Jr (23-1, 19 KO) has won his last three fights since losing to Erickson Lubin in 2023, while Mosley Jr (22-4, 12 KO) is undefeated in five, with his last victory being a points win over former world champion Danny Jacobs.

Undercard remaining
Frank Martin (18-1, 12 KO) returns for the first time since his eighth-round defeat to Gervonta Davis last June and moves to the super lightweight category, and “The Ghost” can stop Rances Barthelemy (30-3-1, 15 KO).
Rising Mexican super welterweight Isaac Lucero (17-0, 13 KO) can remain undefeated by beating compatriot Roberto Valenzuela Jr (31-5, 29 KO).
Dominican super featherweight Luis Reynaldo Nunez (21-0, 14 KO) should maintain his undefeated record with a points victory over Hector Andres Sosa (18-3, 9 KO).

Daniel Blancas (13-0, 6 KO) should defeat William Townsel (8-2, 6 KO) in eight rounds at super middleweight, while super flyweight prospect and Lamont’s younger brother Jordan Roach (5-0, 2 KO) could stop Bryan Santiago (2-3-1) before the end of the four-round fight.
Also in four-round lightweight fights, Hugo Amador Mendez (5-0, 3 KO) should defeat Nelson Hampton (11-10, 6 KO) on points, and Robert Guerrero Jr (6-0, 3 KO) may become the first man to stop Eduardo Tarango (1-3).
Rounding out the card is Adrian Neaves (3-0, 1 KO), who can make it four straight professional victories with a win over Roberto Castro (3-2, 1 KO), and Benjamin Johnson (5-0, 5 KO) will likely stop Josias Gonzalez (2-5-2) in a welterweight clash.

On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.
Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.
Crocker (22-0, 11 KO) became world champion in September, defeating Paddy Donovan twice before winning the rematch by split decision.
Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.
Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.
The 30-year-old won the title with a unanimous decision victory over Subriel Matias in Puerto Rico before winning the belt in his first defense against Richardson Hitchins.
The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.
McKean meets Taliva
Heavyweight Demsey McKean will look to continue his rebuild when he faces Liam Talivaa for the vacant IBF Pan Pacific title.
McKean (24-2, 16 KO) had his career cut miniature after a last-round loss to Filip Hrgovic, followed by a brutal first-round loss to Moses Itauma.

The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.
Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.
Undercard remaining
At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.
Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.
Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.
Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
