2020. Olympic Cuban Gold Medalist Andy Cruz (5-0, 2 KOS) will be fighting in Hirorori Mishiro (17-1-1, 6 Kos) in the IBF Light Title on the Richardson Hitchins opposite the George Cambosos Jr. 14. June in the theater in Madison Square in New York. The event will be displayed Live on Dazn.
The winner of the CRUZ-Mishiro’s fight could be completed by Raymond Muratall if elevated to the full champion, if the current IBF Champ Vasili Lomachenko decides to retire, and not to retire. Given that Cruz is talented, not one of the fighters of Top Peng, Muratalla will probably wait a year or more before being defended against him.
The upper rank promotes Muratall and will not want him to lose IBF immediately in Cruz in low low-payment fight. They will extend it as long as possible and try to ask more matches against Gervont Davis, Keishavn Davis or Abdullah Mason.
Shakur protection from Cruz
Interestingly, Promoter Eddie Hearn positions Andy Cruz according to the IBF title, not a VBC belt holding the combat room Shakur Stevenson. Cruz is ranked # 1 VBC and # 3 IBF. The idea is to protect Shakur long enough to get great money against VBA Champion Gervonta Davis.
If Harn was supposed to fight Shakur against Cruz, Newark, Native Jersey, he would probably lose. It would permanently destroy their chances of fighting. It is smart, but still seems bad that Stevenson is kept from the beatings of the talented CRUZ. It’s a job.
Cruz existed Keishavn Davis constantly since he turned Pro 2023. years, but unhappily. Now that Keishavn captured VBO title of colleague Gornji Rank Borac Denis Berinchik, even fewer interest in his part faced Cruz.
