You can catch the Prelims on DraftKings Network and the full fight week schedule is as follows:

The Prelims begin at 6:00 p.m. ET with three bouts airing live on DraftKings Network. The opening bout is a four-round lightweight fight between Deric Davis and Jamal Johnson. Davis, 22, is 5-0 with five knockouts in his professional boxing career. Johnson, 32, is 2-0 and is fighting for the first time in nearly two years (March 2023). Davis is four inches taller than Johnson (5’9″ vs. 5’5″).

The second Preliminary fight to air on DraftKings Network is a six-round Welterweight bout between David Whitmire and Angel Munoz. Whitmire, 19, is an impressive prospect in the lightweight division as he is 8-0 with six knockouts. Whitmire only made his pro debut two years ago. All of his previous fights have been four-round fights, so this will be his first six-round contest. Munoz is 22 years old and is also undefeated (7-0, 5 KOs). Munoz has the edge in height in this contest (5’11” vs. 5’10”).

The final Prelim is a Middleweight fight between former IBO and IBF Super Welterweight Champion Jarrett Hurd taking on Johan Gonzalez in a 10-round bout. Hurd is coming off a draw against Jeison Rosario in August 2024. He is 2-2-1 since losing his title to Julian Williams in 2019.

Gonzalez is 35-4 with 34 knockouts but has lost two of his previous three fights. He got knocked out by Yoenis Tellez in his last fight in October 2024. Hurd has a three-inch reach advantage (78″ vs. 75″) while being the taller fighter (5’11.5″ vs. 5’10”). Gonzalez is a -115 favorite on DraftKings Sportsbook, while Hurd is a slight -105 underdog.
