On Saturday, March 30, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, and live on Amazon Prime pay-per-view, Jr. Middleweight world titlist Tim Tszyu will battle highly-rated Sebastian Fundora for both the former's version of the title as well as a vacant piece of gold at 154 pounds.
This wasn't a weekend of tremendous fight cards, or tons of action. Rather, we mostly had what we already know simply confirmed by the results.
On Saturday, March 23, at the Sheffield Arena in Sheffield, England, and live on DAZN, Jr. Welterweight contender Dalton Smith will take on former title challenger Jose Zepeda.
We didn't have the busiest of weekends in terms of total fight cards, but the primary show certainly packed a punch.
On Friday, March 8, at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and live on DAZN pay-per-view, on the Anthony Joshua vs. Francis Ngannou under card, former Heavyweight titlist Joseph Parker will take on the hard-hitting Olympic silver medalist Zhilei Zhang.
PICK: ANTHONY JOSHUA VS. FRANCIS NGANNOU
On Saturday, March 8, at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and live on DAZN pay-per-view, former unified Heavyweight titlist Anthony Joshua will take on former UFC Heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou.

On Saturday, March 2, at the Turning Stone Resort & Casino in Verona, New York, and live on ESPN, Featherweight titlist Luis Alberto Lopez will defend his gold against Reiya Abe.
Interesting week of fights, to say the least. Perhaps most interesting, we had fights on Thursday and Friday, but lacked anything too meaningful on Saturday due to the cancellation of Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandry Usyk.
