Aussie defends his IBF crown against Brooklyn star in Puerto Rico
Liam Paro and Richardson Hitchins drew their literal lines in the sand as they came face-to-face on the beach in San Juan, Puerto Rico as they close in on their battle for Paro’s IBF World Junior Lightweight crown on Saturday night at Coliseo Roberto Clemente, live worldwide on DAZN.
TICKETS ARE ON SALE NOW
Paro returns to the scene of his unforgettable victory over 140lb bogeyman Subriel Matias in June, and the Australian defends his crown for the first time against the brash Brooklynite who became his mandatory challenger with victory over Gustavo Lemos in Las Vegas in April.
The unbeaten duo have had plenty to say in the build-up, not least in a tense face-off showdown filmed in Philadelphia last month which can be watched on Matchroom’s YouTube channel, and in the blazing sunshine of the San Juan shore, the heat was well and truly turned up as the pair met for the first time in fight week.
