HBO Boxing



Sergio Martinez vs. Martin Murray, 12 rounds, middleweight
Luis Carlos Abregu vs. Antonin Decarie, 12 rounds, welterweight
Dahianna Santana vs. Claudia Lopez, 10 rounds, featherweight
Kiko Martinez vs. Damian Marchiano, 10 rounds, junior featherweight
Gary Buckland vs. Fernando David Saucedo, 10 rounds, featherweight
Magomed Abdusalamov vs. Sebastian Ceballos, 10 rounds, heavyweight
Diego Pichardo vs. Ivan Ruiz, 10 rounds, junior bantamweight
Israel Perez vs. Jorge Luis Rodriguez, 4 or 6 rounds, junior lightweight

In the night's main event, Sergio Martinez (50-2-2, 28 KO) returns to Argentina for the first time in 11 years, as he defends the middleweight championship against Martin Murray (25-0-1, 11 KO). Murray is a credible challenger, but a large underdog nonetheless.

In the co-feature from Argentina, welterweights Luis Carlos Abregu (34-1, 28 KO) and Antonin Decarie (27-1, 8 KO) meet in a 12-round bout, with WBC ranking the reward for a victory.

Opening the night from Ontario, California, will be a 12-round WBC eliminator between Chris Arreola (35-2, 30 KO) and Bermane Stiverne (22-1-1, 20 KO). The winner, in theory, will receive a shot at Vitali Klitschko. Arreola last badly to Klitschko back in 2009.

Live coverage will start with the broadcast. Those hoping to avoid any "spoilers" from this or the Showtime broadcast of Garcia-Judah are advised to avoid the front page during the fights.
