Golden Boy introduced yesterday night that Regis Prograis vs Joseph Diaz Jr will function the co-feature for his or her August 2nd Oscar Duarte vs Kenneth Sims Jr present in Chicago.
Each males are properly, properly previous their sell-by dates. Prograis (29-3, 24 KO) has dropped two straight to Devin Haney and Jack Catterall, struggling three knockdowns within the course of, and hasn’t turned in an attention grabbing efficiency since knocking out Jose Zepeda in 2022.
Diaz (34-7-1, 15 KO) is in even worse form. Now 2-6 within the final 4 years, his solely victories in that span came to visit skilled B-side Jerry Perez and 6-4-1 Jorge Luis Valencia Diaz. Undersized, under-motivated, and dogged with years of dependancy points, the previous Olympian has diminished himself to a cautionary story on the ripe previous age of 32. “Rougarou” doesn’t have a lot left within the tank, however I’m not satisfied Diaz has something.
The DAZN primary card additionally consists of Tristan Kalkreuth (15-1, 10 KO) vs Kareem Hackett (12-1, 6 KO) and the most recent from Pan-Am gold medalist and 2024 U.S. tremendous heavyweight Olympian Joshua Edwards (3-0, 3 KO).
