Shane Mosley Jr faces Serhii Bohachuk in the main event of Zuffa Boxing 6 on Sunday, May 10, at the Meta APEX in Las Vegas. The two fighters square off in a 10-round middleweight bout.
The promotion announced the Mosley vs Bohachuk showdown as the main event of its next card – along with two additional matchups – during the Zuffa Boxing 5 broadcast on Sunday.
Making his Zuffa Boxing debut, Mosley (22-5, 12 KOs) of Pomona, California, returns to the ring after dropping a unanimous decision to Jesus Ramos last December in his bid to claim the interim WBC 160-pound title.
Ukraine’s former interim WBC super welterweight champion Bohachuk (27-3, 24 KOs) comes off a split decision victory over Radzhab Butaev at Zuffa Boxing 2 in February.
The upcoming card also includes a 10-round welterweight contest between Julian Rodriguez and James Perella.
Rodriguez (25-1, 15 KOs) of Hoboken, New Jersey, defeated Cain Sandoval by unanimous decision at Zuffa Boxing 1 in January, securing his fourth win in a row since his loss to Jose Pedraza.
Unbeaten newcomer Perella (21-0, 15 KOs) of Mansfield, Massachusetts, earned two knockout victories last year against Alfredo Rodolfo Blanco and Saul Guadalupe Corral Escalante.
Additionally, Misael Uziel Rodriguez and Andreas Katzourakis square off in a 10-round middleweight bout.
Mexico’s undefeated Rodriguez (16-0, 8 KOs) is back in action after stopping Austin Deanda in four rounds at the inaugural event in January.
Unbeaten Katzourakis (16-0, 11 KOs) of Greece makes his promotional debut following a seventh-round TKO victory over Roberto Cruz Jr. last May.
The Zuffa Boxing 6 prelims are expected to be announced shortly.
