Jarrett Hurd and Jeison Rosario meet in tonight’s ProBox TV main event!
It’s another ProBox Wednesday night, and we’ve got live coverage here at Bad Left Hook! Tonight, Jarrett Hurd and Jeison Rosario meet in a ProBox TV main event, set for 10 rounds in the middleweight division.
The show starts at 8 pm ET, so join us then for full live coverage in the comments section below!
Hurd (25-3, 17 KO) was a unified champion at 154 lbs., winning consecutive fights against against Tony Harrison, Austin Trout, and Erislandy Lara to make his reputation as an action fighter with punishing power. A surprising 2019 upset loss to Julian “J-Rock” Williams hinted those earlier battles had taken a toll, a theory supported by subsequent losses by decision to Luis Arias and by stoppage to Armando Resendiz.
Rosario (24-4-1, 18 KO) was also a junior middleweight champion, beating J-Rock Williams by 5th round TKO in Williams’s first defense of what had been Hurd’s belts. Rosario then lost his first title defense to Jermell Charlo by KO-8, lost again the next time out by KO-6 to Erickson Lubin, and lost his only significant fight since to Brian Mendoza in 2022, also by knockout.
With no disrespect to their notable achievements of 4-5 years ago, both men have looked clearly past their best in recent outings. But, either could be one or two wins away from another meaningful opportunity in a wide-open middleweight division, and both men have enough name value to help revitalize the reputation of whoever wins tonight.
