On Saturday, April 26, 2014, Showtime Championship Boxing and Golden Boy Promotions present an exciting boxing triple-header that could easily be titled “Knockout Kings 3.”
The fight card–sponsored by Corona, AT&T and Casamigos Tequila–is headlined by a 12-round fight featuring Keith Thurman as he defends his Interim WBA Welterweight World Championship against Julio Diaz.
The night of action takes place at StubHub Center in Carson, Calif., and will air on Showtime starting at 9 pm, EST, 6 pm, PST.
In the co-feature, Argentine knockout artist Lucas Matthysse faces hard-hitting John Molina Jr. in a 10-round Junior Welterweight bout.
In the opening bout of the telecast, Omar Figueroa Jr. defends his WBC Lightweight title against fellow Texan, Jerry Belmontes.
The preliminary fights will air on Showtime Extreme.
