LAS VEGAS (March 17, 2025) — “The Monster” is ready to hit his next undisputed junior featherweight world title defense out of the park.
Japanese icon Naoya Inoue will defend all the belts against Ramon Cardenas on Sunday, May 4, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Inoue-Cardenas and the WBO featherweight title bout between reigning champion Rafael Espinoza and top contender Edward Vazquez will headline a world championship doubleheader that will be broadcast live on ESPN, ESPN Deportes and ESPN+ at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT.
The Inoue-Cardenas card is scheduled to air immediately following the Sunday Night Baseball game between Shohei Ohtani’s Los Angeles Dodgers and the Atlanta Braves.
Undercard bouts will be announced soon and stream live and exclusively on ESPN+.
“This is a tremendous platform for Inoue to perform, as he and the incomparable Ohtani are two of Japan’s most decorated athletes,” said Top Rank Chairman Bob Arum. “This promises to be a special event at T-Mobile Arena and for boxing fans watching on ESPN.”
