WBC junior lightweight champion O'Shaquie Foster puts his title on the line against Raymond Ford in Houston on May 30. This showdown at the Fertitta Center will stream live worldwide on DAZN, and fans won't want to miss it.
Foster, boasting a record of 24-3 with 12 KOs, is on a hot streak, having dominated former two-division champion Stephen Fulton last December. With 14 wins in his last 15 fights, he currently stands as ESPN's No. 2 ranked junior lightweight. "I'm happy and excited to fight at home for the first time as a world champion - it's a dream come true," Foster proclaims, vowing to be "1,000-percent prepared" to dominate the matchup.
On the opposing side, Camden's Raymond Ford, with a record of 18-1-1 and 8 KOs, is eager to seize this opportunity. After bouncing back with three consecutive wins following a loss to Nick Ball for the WBA featherweight title, he now ranks No. 4 in the 130-pound division. "I'm just happy he finally signed the contract," Ford states. He views this bout as a crucial step in his career, aiming to capture the belt and become a two-weight world champion on May 30.
