Mayer-Ryan rematch set for March 29

0 7

Two-weight queen Mikaela Mayer (20-2, 5 KOs) will defend her WBO welterweight world title in a rematch against former champion Sandy Ryan (7-2-1, 3 KOs) on Saturday, March 29, at Bleaulive Theater, the fully-customizable, 90,000-square-foot theater at Fontainebleau Las Vegas. The tension between the two intensified before their first encounter last September. Mayer claimed Ryan had stolen her trainer, while Ryan accused Team Mayer of orchestrating a pre-fight stunt that saw Ryan doused with paint outside of the New York City fight hotel. Mayer dethroned Ryan via majority decision, but the brushwork on this feud is far from finished.

In the co-feature, Brian Norman Jr. (26-0, 20 KOs) will make the inaugural defense of his WBO welterweight world championship against Puerto Rican challenger Derrieck Cuevas (27-1-1, 19 KOs).

Mayer-Ryan II and Norman-Cuevas will be broadcast live on ESPN.

Also, rising featherweight phenom Bruce “Shu Shu” Carrington (14-0, 8 KOs) will square off against Jose Enrique Vivas (23-3, 12 KOs) in a 10-round WBC final eliminator as the featured bout on the ESPN+-streamed undercard.
