Someone’s 0 must go on Saturday, December 7, in Puerto Rico. Liam Paro vs Richardson Hitchins tops the bill at the Coliseo Roberto Clemente in San Juan, and both men enter the ring unbeaten. Aussie southpaw Liam Paro will be looking to retain the IBF world super lightweight belt he won in the summer, while American Richardson Hitchins aims to dethrone the champ and take home that strap for himself.
Liam Paro returns to Puerto Rico, the scene of his sensational and shocking title win against Subriel Matias in June. It was a career-best performance for the Queenslander on that famous night in June, and he’ll be out to prove that victory wasn’t a fluke when he makes the first defence of his crown in San Juan. Richardson Hitchins also enters the fray on the back of his most notable career performance. However, that points victory against Gustavo Lemos in April was far from emphatic, and he was rocked by the Argentinian fighter several times. The fact that Lemos was left sprawling on the canvas in just the second round by Keyshawn Davis last month further took the shine off Hitchens’ last ring encounter.
