Showtime has just announced seven cards that will begin on December 10 and culminate with the March 4 showdown between Keith Thurman and Danny Garcia.
The Dec. 10 card features Jesus Cuellar taking on Abner Mares, while Jermall Charlo takes on Julian Williams, followed by the Jan. 14 clash between Badou Jack and James DeGale.
Then on Jan. 28, Carl Frampton will take on Leo Santa Cruz while Mikey Garcia faces off against Dejan Zlaticanin.
On Feb. 11, the recently troubled Adrien Broner is scheduled to take on Adrian Granados and finally on March 4, Keith Thurman and Danny Garcia meet in a highly anticipated welterweight title tilt.
All fights will be on Showtime with the exception of Thurman-Garcia, which may land on CBS.
?This is a slate of high-level, evenly-matched, 50/50 fights ? the best fighting the best ? which has become the calling card of Showtime Championship Boxing,? said Showtime?s Stephen Espinoza. ?Every fight we are announcing today features a top 10-ranked champion taking on a top 10-ranked challenger; in many cases, it?s top-five vs. top-five.
