"The 28-year-old Hitchins is undefeated in 20 fights and looking to win his 21st professional bout, which will come before Ryan Garcia and Mario Barrios headline the event on DAZN PPV. I'm ready to get in the ring. You can feel all types of emotions, but once you get in the ring, that's when the real st happens, Hitchins told amNewYork. When I get in front of somebody, it feels different. My skills just take over. I'm ready to box."
"He reflects on his bout with Liam Pero, whom he fought in his first world title fight. It was my first time fighting a world champion and my first highly anticipated fight. He was in his prime. We're both undefeated, and he is a world champion, Hitchins explained. When I took his belt, it was like I am way better than this guy. He remains confident in his abilities going into his next bout against Jurado, who is 30-2-1 and on a four-fight win streak."
Richardson Hitchins will defend his IBF super lightweight title against Oscar Duarte Jurado in the co-main event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on DAZN pay-per-view. The 28-year-old is undefeated in 20 professional fights and seeks his 21st victory before the Ryan Garcia vs. Mario Barrios main event. Hitchins last fought six months ago, stopping George Kambosos Jr. in the eighth round, and maintains a similar training regimen focused on defense. He recalls defeating Liam Pero for his first world title and believes he is markedly superior. Jurado is 30-2-1 with a four-fight win streak and 23 knockouts. Hitchins represents Brooklyn while preparing for the bout.
