Christian Mbilli puts his undefeated record on the line tonight against tough veteran Sergiy Derevyanchenko, headlining an ESPN-televised card from Quebec City.
Live coverage will start at 10 pm ET on ESPN and ESPN+, and the early prelim fights will start at 5 pm ET on ESPN+.
Mbilli (27-0, 23 KO) is in potential prime position to face Canelo Alvarez in 2025, which is no guarantee, but he has to win tonight to even stay in that potential mix. Derevyanchenko (15-5, 10 KO) doesn’t have the prettiest W-L record, but if you’ve seen him fight, you know he can fight, and has only lost to true top-level fighters. He’s a test Mbilli could still stand to pass.
Also on the card: Arslanbek Makhmudov (19-1, 18 KO) will take on Guido Vianello (12-2-1, 10 KO) in a heavyweight bout, and super middleweight Osleys Iglesias (11-0, 10 KO) will face Sena Agbeko (28-3, 22 KO) in what will be a first chance for many to see Iglesias, a Cuban who started his pro career mainly in Germany and is now fighting in Quebec, coming off of back-to-back first round knockouts of Marcelo Coceres and Evgeny Shvedenko.
