Errol Spence Jr. is back in the ring after missing out on Manny Pacquiao last year.
The summer was meant to see Spence Jr. take on the Filipino senator but he had to undergo eye surgery instead for a detached retina, and in his place stepped up Cuban fighter Yordenis Ugas.
Ugas won the WBA strap that night and Spence Jr. brings with him the WBC and IBF championships when the pair fight on Saturday in Texas.
The winner of the bout could go on to meet WBO champion Terence Crawford to settle who is the undisputed fighter at 147lbs.
