(USA), 1:00 am ET, Jason Moloney vs Andre Donovan. From Fortitude Valley, just outside of Brisbane, Australia. Confirmed on Stan.Sport for our Australian friends\u2026 BoxRec thinks this is on UFC Fight Pass in America, but it doesn\u2019t list there currently. Moloney snapped a two fight losing streak with a win over Herlan Gomez back in December. Donovan is from Ohio, fighting for the first time in a year and the first time at 10 rounds or longer. Moloney is a former bantamweight world champion, and Donovan is a former CountryBox: Where Music Meets Boxing guy. Odds are way closer than I assumed given those seemingly pertinent biographical details.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">TrillerTV+, 9:00 pm ET, Night of Champions XI. From Long Beach, California. 12 total fights listed on BoxRec, with two ten-rounders at the top of the card.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">DAZN, 1:00 pm ET, Jacob Bank vs Paulinus Ndjolonimu. From Kolding, Denmark. Bank has had a fantastic 2026 so far. He knocked out William Scull (Is he officially better than Canelo? Sound off in the comments!), got married, had a kid, and now he\u2019s taking on Namibian Paulinus Ndjolonimu. Ndjolonimu has a great KO rate and just one loss, but it came in his only departure from Namibia, and the KOs came against what could be the equivalent of southwest African club fighters, for all I know of them. Bank is the show, with one eight-rounder and a handful of six-rounders in support. One of them includes a guy named Thorbjorn Boudigaard!<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">DAZN, 2:00 pm ET, Lawrence Okolie vs Tony Yoka. From Paris, France. GET FIRED UP!! When Scott asked me if I would cover the mega event he\u2019s taken to calling YOKOLIE, I obviously told him #YOLOkolie, and agreed immediately. It\u2019s a 2016 Olympics locker room grudge match! Yoka won gold at super heavyweight. Okolie was knocked out in the round of 16 in the regular heavyweight division. But, maybe one of them hogged the showers or shot a dirty look at the other between sessions? Who knows? Could be personal, somehow! And now they\u2019ll settle it, after 10 years and a lot of mutually evaporated hype! Four years ago, I <a href=\"https:\/\/www.badlefthook.com\/2022\/2\/26\/22951967\/okolie-vs-cieslak-predictions-odds-preview-who-wins-fight-boxing-news-2022\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">compared Okolie to a pancake breakfast<\/a>. His subsequent cruiserweight loss to CBS and two years of general puttering around as a heavyweight haven\u2019t made me any more excited for his fights. Yoka was once at least in the discussion for rising fighters with future heavyweight championship potential. And then, he lost three straight fights to Martin Bakole, Carlos Takam, and Ryad Merhy. We were all confused when Queensberry signed him last summer, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.badlefthook.com\/boxing-news\/2025\/7\/31\/24478636\/olympic-gold-medalist-tony-yoka-signs-queensberry-promotions-boxing-news-2025\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Stumberg speculating<\/a> he was inked as live feed for Joe Joyce. Instead, it\u2019s Okolie. On paper, it\u2019s a godawful matchup between a guy notorious for limited engagement and holding, and another openly condemned by broadcasters for a cracked chin and refusal to attack. But, I\u2019m sorta looking forward to it? Don\u2019t ask me to explain, beyond both of these guys needing this fight badly if they want to be or do anything else of note with their careers. As for the undercard? I\u2019ll watch so you don\u2019t have to.

From Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The proud lineage of Philly boxers goes from Joe Frazier to Rocky Balboa to Bernard Hopkins, and now to Floyd Mayweather\u2026\u2019s sister, Fatimah. She and pro wrestler Zenith Zion headline this $29.99 PPV event.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">DAZN, 8:00 pm ET, Jarrell Miller vs Lenier Pero. From Las Vegas, Nevada. Miller returns, presumably with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.badlefthook.com\/boxing-news\/112864\/jarrell-millers-wig-got-knocked-off-during-fight-with-kingsley-ibeh\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sturdier scalp glue<\/a>, fresh off his first win in almost three years. He\u2019ll try to make it a streak against Pero, the elder of the heavyweight Pero brothers (don\u2019t confuse him with Dainier) who finally takes a step up in opposition at the age of 33. Nothing down the card demands your attention, though the chief support between Angel Barrientes and Isaac Rojas looks well-matched and could be a fun one.
