Hitchins: a star in the making?

Richardson has the charisma and amateur pedigree to be a star in the light welterweight division. We don’t know if it’s hard enough. Tonight, Hitchins will show if he has the courage to take on a fighter, Paro, who throws the rules out the window when he fights.

The undercard is heavy on prospects rather than having guys on the cusp of a world title, but it’s understandable why Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn chose to make these fights. The event takes place in San Juan, Puerto Rico, so he chose fights that would resonate with the audience rather than ones that fans outside the island would be interested in watching.

The preliminary card begins at 3:30 p.m. ET below
