Boxing has a full schedule on Saturday, and it starts early in the day with a card streamed by DAZN from the Wembley Arena in London, U.K. IBF flyweight champion Sunny Edwards (19-0, 4 KOs) defends his title at home against the undefeated Andres Campos (15-0, 4 KOs). This fight has not only the IBF flyweight title on the line but also a potential fight later this year against the WBO champ Jesse ‘Bam’ Rodriguez (18-0, 11 KOs).
For those that don’t know, Edwards was in negotiations last year to fight WBC titleholder Julio Cesar Martinez, but after those talks fell apart, Martinez went in a different direction. Since then, Edwards went from Probellum, who quietly closed their doors, to signing with Matchroom earlier this year. Edwards initially discussed fighting Rodriguez right away, but after Rodriguez broke his jaw in his last fight, that will have to wait until later this year or early 2024. First things first, Edwards needs to focus on Campos before setting his sights on anything in the future.

Campos is an unknown contender from Chile who has racked up most of his wins in his home country. Campos now has the tough task of going to London and trying to outbox Edwards over twelve rounds and capture the IBF crown. Can Campos do enough to sway the judges to see him as the winner on Saturday night?
