Renowned Cuban fighter Andy Cruz will have the opportunity to claim the IBF Lightweight Championship this Saturday, January 24, in Las Vegas when he faces Californian knockout artist and current champion Raymond Muratalla in a battle that promises action and drama.
An Olympic champion in Tokyo 2020 and two-time Pan American champion, Cruz boasts a 6-0 record with 3 knockouts and is the favorite to take the crown against Muratalla, who recently won the vacant title decisively against Zaur Abdullaev last May.
