Premier Boxing Champions Announces December 6 Pay-Per-View Undercard
In a significant announcement, Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) has confirmed a highly anticipated three-fight pay-per-view undercard set to unfold on December 6. The event will be headlined by the clash between Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz and Lamont Roach Jr., who will compete for the WBC interim super lightweight title. This fight takes place at the Frost Bank Arena in San Antonio, Texas, and caps off an impressive year for PBC.
Co-Main Event: Lara vs. Alimkhanuly
The undercard boasts a notable co-main event where Erislandy Lara will face Janibek Alimkhanuly in a middleweight title unification battle. This showdown is particularly crucial for the 160-pound division, which has recently seen a decrease in high-profile matchups following the departures of superstars Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Gennadiy Golovkin from the weight class.
Kazakhstan’s Alimkhanuly, who holds an undefeated record of 17 wins with 12 knockouts, has long sought unification fights to solidify his standing in the sport. He previously defended his WBO and IBF titles with a decisive victory over Vincenzo Gualtieri in 2023 and is eager to capture more titles in his upcoming bout against Lara—who, despite his age of 42, remains a formidable opponent. Lara, with a career record of 31 wins, 3 losses, and 3 draws, exhibited his enduring skill when he successfully defended his WBA title against Danny Garcia in September 2024.
Exciting Matchups on the Undercard
Adding further excitement to the card, O’Shaquie Foster will defend his WBC super featherweight title against Stephen Fulton, the current WBC featherweight champion. This matchup is a blend of skill and strategy, with Foster (23-3, 12 KOs) eager to showcase his abilities after previously winning the title with a thrilling come-from-behind knockout against Eduardo “Rocky” Hernandez last October. Fulton, whose record stands at 23-1 with 8 KOs, aims to achieve a remarkable feat by claiming a title in a third weight division after a previous loss to Naoya Inoue in 2023.
Opening Fight: Ramos Jr. vs. Mosley Jr.
To kick off the pay-per-view, Jesus Ramos Jr. will make the jump to middleweight to contest the WBC interim title against Shane Mosley Jr., the son of the iconic boxer Shane Mosley. Both fighters were sidelined from their previously scheduled bout on October 25 due to an injury affecting one of the main event participants. With this lineup, PBC is poised to deliver an exhilarating end to its boxing season.
