PhilBoxing.com




Samake-Ryan tops bill from Paris starting at 12:30 p.m. ET/9:30 a.m. PT
Soto-Caro streams live from Mexicali, Mexico, at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT

(Nov. 20, 2024) — Two action-packed cards with international flavor will stream live and exclusively in the U.S. on ESPN+ this Saturday, Nov. 23.

The fight marathon begins at Canopée Westfield Forum des Halles in Paris at 12:30 p.m. ET/9:30 a.m. PT. French superstar Bakary Samake battles Australian veteran Wade Ryan for the vacant WBC silver junior middleweight strap in the 12-round main event.

The fisticuffs continue from Plaza de Toros Calafia in Mexicali, Mexico, at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT, when former world champion Elwin Soto returns against Moisés Caro in a 10-rounder for the WBO Latino light flyweight title.

Samake (16-0, 8 KOs) is a three-year pro who previously won the IBF Youth junior middleweight title in March 2023. He kicked off his 2024 campaign in March with a 10-round unanimous decision over former European Union welterweight champion Ahmed El Mousaoui. In June, he turned away Chile’s Julio Alamos over 10 rounds. Ryan (22-11-1, 8 KOs), a southpaw from Gunnedah, Australia, has only been stopped once as a pro and is 2-0-1 in his last three fights. In March, he traveled to Tokyo and held local hero Takeshi Inoue to a 12-round draw. In October 2017, he knocked down then-unbeaten prospect Tim Tszyu in the opening round before dropping a unanimous decision.

In other streaming action from Paris:

Mustapha Zaouche (15-0, 5 KOs) vs. Gregorio Marcano (14-7-1, 12 KOs), 8 Rounds, Super Middleweights

Victor Yoka (5-0, 2 KOs) vs. Ali Yammouni (14-17, 4 KOs), 6 Rounds, Junior Middleweights

Morad Maizou (2-0-1, 1 KO) vs. Cesar Ignacio Paredes (17-13-1, 5 KOs), 6 Rounds, Junior Lightweights

Pavel Yasmany Echaide Planche (0-1) vs. Julien Dimna (0-3), 6 Rounds, Welterweights

Soto (21-3, 13 KOs) held the WBO light flyweight world title from 2019-2021 and made three successful title defenses. He won two fights in 2023 following a June 2022 decision defeat to former world champion Hekkie Budler. Caro (11-3-3, 5 KOs) is coming off a highly disputed split decision to Mexican countryman Miguel Nieblas Avendano in June.

In other streaming action from Mexicali:

Erik Robles (15-2, 9 KOs) vs. Misael Gracia (15-5-3, 10 KOs), 10 rounds, Junior Featherweights

Miguel Nieblas (11-3, 6 KOs) vs. Erick Gutierrez (7-1, 3 KOs), 8 Rounds, Flyweights

Alex Guillen (8-1, 6 KOs) vs. Abimael Cruz (10-3-1, 8 KOs), 8 Rounds, Junior Welterweights

Andres Garcia (6-0, 3 KOs) vs. Jose Navarro Montanez (6-1, 2 KOs), 6 Rounds, Lightweights
