The super lightweight world title picture will become a bit clearer on Saturday night when Jose Zepeda and Regis Prograis meet for the vacant WBC title.
With a rematch against Jack Catterall imminent, Josh Taylor was forced to vacate the iconic green and gold belt which will now be contested in an all-American affair.
This will be Zepeda's second shot at the this particular title after losing to Jose Ramirez in February 2019, but he will be coming up against a motivated Prograis who is looking to prove a point after being sidelined numerous times by various governing bodies when trying to stake a claim for a world title shot.
