No Smoke Boxing’s Darshan Desai first broke the news, as Jake Donovan of BoxingScene.com broke the news that unbeaten super middleweight Diego Pacheco will face Jack Cullen on March 11th, as part of DAZN show from M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool, England. The bout will be the co-feature of Callum Smith’s return to the ring, as he awaits his mandatory WBC light heavyweight world title shot against the winner of Artur Beterbiev vs. Anthony Yarde.
Pacheco, who is on a short-list of great young fighters, looks to be one the must-see fighter Matchroom Boxing is grooming for the top of the card. Training with Jose Benavidez Sr., best known for his work with his son, David Benavidez, many believe Pacheco could be the next big super middleweight.
