Terence Crawford Battles Egidijus Kavaliauskas On Dec. 14
Supporting the Card will be Brooklyn native Teofimo Lopez challenging IBF lightweight world champion Richard “RC” Commey in his first world title fight and crowning the triple header will be Irish prospect Michael Colan taking on Russian Vladimir Nikitin in a rematch of a 2016 fight.
“This is the best fight card of the year, and Madison Square Garden is a fitting venue for what will be a special night,” said Top Rank chairman Bob Arum.
“Terence Crawford is a generational talent, but he’ll have his hands full against the ‘Mean Machine.’ Teofimo Lopez is taking a giant step up against Commey, and it will be a tremendous fight. Mick Conlan has been asking for Nikitin since the day he signed with Top Rank. He finally gets his wish, and I know he wants to correct the tremendous injustice of the Rio Olympics.”
Other Fights On the Card are yet to be announced and will be made know in the coming weeks. The fight will stream mainly on ESPN and the Televised broadcast will start at 6pm ET.
