Former heavyweight champion Andy Ruiz Jr is making his return to the ring this evening, taking on Polish challenger Damian Knyba in the headlining bout of “The Fight” card. The matchup takes place at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, and will be broadcast on both DAZN and TNT, with the main card starting at 8:00 pm ET.
The evening’s card features several compelling contests beyond the main event. In the most significant undercard bout, middleweights Vito Mielnicki Jr and Austin “Ammo” Williams will square off in a 12-round affair with high stakes for both fighters. Additional matchups include a lightweight encounter between Alan Chaves and Eridson Garcia over 10 rounds, while super featherweight prospect Zaquin Moses faced Angel Antonio Contreras in an eight-round bout that saw Moses secure a fifth-round technical knockout.
Moses, an undefeated 21-year-old from Newark, demonstrated his technical prowess throughout his fight with Contreras, who entered with an extensive record of facing high-level competition. The young prospect’s corner ultimately decided to stop the bout after five rounds, citing the clear disparity in skill level. Moses improved his record to 8-0 with four knockouts, showcasing controlled aggression and effective body work rather than reckless knockout hunting.
