Across the pond will see Gary Russell Jr. (21-1, 16 KOs) defend his WBC featherweight throne versus Oscar Escandon (25-2, 17 KOs). The action will take place at MGM National Harbor in Baltimore, Md., as Russell will make the second defense of his WBC featherweight title in the process.

Rounding out the quadrupleheader in Maryland will be Andre Dirrell (25-2, 16 KOs) looking retain his WBC super welterweight strap against Jose Uzcategui (26-1, 22 KOs) while Rances Barthelemy (25-0, 16 KOs) will oppose Kiryl Relikh (21-1, 19 KOs) in a WBA super lightweight title eliminator.
