In a homecoming appearance, Boots (32-0, 29 KOs) makes the second defense of his IBF welterweight crown against Ukrainian contender Karen Chukhadzhian. This bout is a rematch of their January 2023 encounter which Boots won comprehensively on points.

“I’m not going to lie, he’s getting knocked out on Saturday,” said Boots during the final press conference.

“We’re gonna have some fun, we’re gonna put on a show.

“It doesn’t matter what he does, we’re going to put on a show and make a big statement Saturday night. We’re gonna have a party.”

Bam (20-0, 13 KOs) defends WBC and Ring Magazine super flyweight titles against  Pedro Guevara. Fresh off his stunning seventh-round knockout triumph over Mexican legend Juan Francisco Estrada in July, Bam is looking for a statement victory over the former WBC light flyweight champ.

“[Guevara is] looking at his fight as a great opportunity to change his life, to change his family’s life, but I feel like I’m on top of my game and no one can beat me,” Bam told The Sporting News.

“Come November 9, I’m going to show that I’m one of the best in boxing.”

The Sporting News will provide live coverage of the undercard and round-by-round scoring on both of these world title fights.

*We now switch to round-by-round scoring for the co-main event.

9:43 p.m. ET | 6:43 p.m. PT: Up next is pound-for-pound standout Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez, who goes against Mexico’s Pedro Guevara. Bam will be defending WBC and Ring Magazine super flyweight titles against the former light flyweight champion.

THE WINNER BY UNANIMOUS DECISION IS “SAVAGE” RAY FORD. THE FORMER WBA FEATHERWEIGHT CHAMP PREVAILS BY SCORES OF 100-88, 100-88 AND 99-89.

9:35 p.m. ET | 6:35 p.m. PT: The bell ends this super featherweight 10-rounder and we go to the corecards. Despite the fact he had to go the long route, this was a terrific performance by the American in his 130-pound debut.

9:27 p.m. ET | 6:27 p.m. PT: ANOTHER SPECTACULAR RIGHT HOOK DECKS GONZALEZ AGAIN AT THE END OF ROUND 8. He’s hanging tough but will be lucky to see the end of this 10-rounder.

9:19 p.m. ET | 6:19 p.m. PT: We’re six rounds down and Gonzalez was momentarily shaken again in the last session. He’s displaying soldier-like bravery, but outside of taunting, he’s not getting much done with his fists. Ford is enjoying a cakewalk right now!

9:00 p.m. ET | 6:00 p.m. PT: WHAT A SHOT BY FORD AND DOWN GOES GONZALEZ IN ROUND 2. The American switched a right jab into a hook and the visitor didn’t even see the shot. He’s hurt but gets up gamely and fights back.

8:49 p.m. ET | 5:49 p.m. PT: Next up is a super featherweight contest between Raymond Ford and Puerto Rico’s Orlando Gonzalez. Ford lost his WBA featherweight crown to Nick Ball in June and is making his debut at 130 pounds.

THE WINNER IN A STUNNING UPSET IS MEXICAN WARRIOR MANUEL GALLEGOS, WHO IMPROVES TO 21-2-1 (17 KOs). GALLEGOS BOUNCES BACK BRILLIANTLY FOLLOWING A STOPPAGE LOSS TO DIEGO PACHECO IN JULY OF LAST YEAR!

8:28 p.m. ET | 5:28 p.m. PT: The referee and the corner team want to pull Coe out of the fight, but he refuses. WOW!!! GALLEGOS STOPS THE FIGHT HIMSELF WITH ANOTHER CRUSHING KNOCKDOWN EARLY IN ROUND 9. WHAT AN UPSET!!!

8:24 p.m. ET | 5:24 p.m. PT: ANOTHER BODY SHOT KNOCKDOWN FROM GALLEGO IN ROUND 8. Coe is up again and his bravery is commendable, but the writing is on the wall. 

8:22 p.m. ET | 5:22 p.m. PT: COE IS DOWN AGAIN FROM A LEFT HOOK TO THE TEMPLE IN ROUND SEVEN!!! He’s up late in the count again and battling back, but he just cannot handle Gallegos’ power. That’s two 10-8 rounds gone against him in the scoring and the momentum is against him. He is in serious trouble!!

8:14 p.m. ET | 5:14 p.m. PT: WOW!!! COE GOES DOWN FROM A HUGE LEFT HOOK TO THE BODY IN THE FIFTH. He’s up at eight and fighting back….. GALLEGOS IS HURT BY A RIGHT HAND! Both men are trading, but Gallegos’ ability to take Coe’s power is astonishing! The bell ends the round and Coe has his work cut out for him!

8:11 p.m. ET | 5:11 p.m. PT: GREAT ROUND FROM GALLEGOS IN THE FOURTH. A right hand sets up two prolonged flurries and the American looks shaken. He appears to have recovered by the end of the session, but he needs to be careful. Despite being a huge underdog, Gallegos can crack and he’s looking to tear up the script.

8:08 p.m. ET | 5:08 p.m. PT: We’re three rounds down and while Coe has won all of them convincingly, he’s been made to work by his Mexican opponent who’s walking through some serious fire and throwing back hard shots of his own.

7.50 p.m. ET | 4:50 p.m. PT: Next up is a 10-round light heavyweight matchup between New Jersey’s Khalil Coe and Manuel Gallegos. There’s a lot of hype surrounding Coe, who was a standout amateur.

AMERICAN MIDDLEWEIGHT AUSTIN WILLIAMS IMPROVES TO 17-1 (12 KOs) WITH A CONVINCING FIFTH-ROUND TKO. AMMO IS BACK!!!

7.35 p.m. ET | 4:35 p.m. PT: A DEVASTATING, THUMPING ATTACK FROM WILLIAMS IN ROUND 5 FORCES A STOPPAGE. This was a solid performance by Ammo, who needed to make a statement to remain in the world title hunt.

7.15 p.m. ET | 4:15 p.m. PT: In an eight-round middleweight bout, Austin “Ammo” Williams looks to get back in the win column against Gian Garrido. Williams was once highly touted and needs a boost following a stoppage loss to fearsome British contender Hamzah Sheeraz in June.
