WBA ‘Interim’ Super-Lightweight Belt Matchup Between Ohara Davies And Ismael Barroso

LAS VEGAS — The Theater at Virgin Hotels in Las Vegas will host the rescheduled fight between Ohara Davies and Ismael Barroso on Saturday, January 6. The WBA super lightweight title is up for grabs as the two compete. The match is the co-feature on the card, with Vergil Ortiz Jr. vs. Fredrick Lawson at the top.

 

The fight between Barroso, 40, from Venezuelan and Davies, 31, from England was originally scheduled for December 2 in Houston, Texas. The fight was rescheduled because of the latter’s visa problems. Davies (25-2, 18 KOs) makes his American debut riding a seven-fight winning streak. In March, he defeated Lewis Ritson via knockout in the ninth round.
