Janelson Figueroa Bocachica competes in the headline bout against 2016 Olympian Alberto Palmetta. Both boxers are looking to bounce back from recent defeats. Bocachica dropped an eight-round decision defeat to Roiman Villa last year, before Jamal James handed Palmetta a 10-round loss on points in February. Victory here, though, will see either Bocachica or Palmetta get their career back on track with a return to winning ways and a world ranking boost in the lively welterweight division.
