Junior welterweight Batyrzhan Jukembayev will face Ivan Redkach on May 22 in the
main event of Wednesday Night Fights, exclusively broadcast on ProBox TV. The bout
is set to headline a night of 50-50 fights, beginning at 8 PM EST.
Jukembayev, who holds a record of 22-1 with 16 knockouts, is currently on a four-fight
win streak, with two of those victories secured on ProBox TV. Originally hailing from
Shu, Kazakhstan, Jukembayev aims to achieve the most significant win of his career in
this upcoming fight. His sole defeat came at the hands of IBF junior welterweight
champion Subriel Matias.
Redkach, possessing a 24-6-1 record with 19 knockouts, now resides in Los Angeles,
California, though he is originally from Ukraine. A seasoned veteran, Redkach returned
to the ring last July after a two-year hiatus. Having previously faced top-tier opponents
such as Regis Prograis and Danny Garcia without securing a victory, Redkach is
determined to alter his fortunes against Jukembayev.
The co-feature will spotlight a junior lightweight contest between Jonhatan Cardoso
(16-1, 15 KOs) of São Paulo, Brazil, and Adam ‘Blunose’ Lopez (17-5, 6 KOs) of
Glendale, California, set for ten rounds. This bout promises to be a thrilling encounter
between two highly skilled pugilists with the winner advancing in the division.
Additionally, junior welterweight Charles Harris (8-1, 7 KOs) will continue his comeback
journey against Kyle Erwin (7-1, 3 KOs) of Oceanside, California. Both fighters, with
similar records, are looking to solidify their positions in the division.
The event will open with cruiserweight Adrian Tillman making his professional debut
against undefeated Jayleen Bullock (1-0, 1 KO) of Wilson, North Carolina, in a
four-round contest.
Wednesday Night Fights will be available in both English and Spanish, featuring
commentary and analysis from former world champions Paulie Malignaggi, Chris Algieri,
and Juan Manuel Márquez. For more information on upcoming live events, visit
