All fighters make weight for DAZN card at Caribe Royale

The weigh-in is done, and the stage is set for an explosive night of boxing at the Caribe Royale in Orlando as Lenier Pero and Jordan Thompson square off for the WBA Continental Heavyweight Title tomorrow, Saturday, November 1, live on DAZN beginning at 8 p.m. ET.

Cuba’s unbeaten heavyweight Lenier Pero (242.2 lbs) and London’s towering puncher Jordan Thompson (238 lbs) both came in fit and confident ahead of their 10-round main event bout, promising fireworks between two hungry contenders looking to break into world title contention.

The undefeated Pero (12-0, 8KOs), a southpaw from Camagüey, Cuba, has been steadily climbing the heavyweight ladder with a blend of skill and pressure. Thompson (15-1, 12 KOs), rebounding from a single career defeat, brings speed and power from the cruiserweight ranks and vowed to make a statement on U.S. soil.

Before the heavyweight headliner, the stacked undercard features a mix of rising prospects and regional title action:
