Former WBO junior featherweight world titleholder Jessie Magdaleno faces Yenifel Vicente in a 10-round junior lightweight battle in the main event of a Top Rank Boxing card on Thursday at the MGM Grand Conference Center in Las Vegas. The fight will air live on ESPN and ESPN Deportes at 8 p.m. ET.
Magdaleno (27-1, 18 KOs), of Las Vegas, won his title in an impressive performance against future Hall of Famer Nonito Donaire in 2016. After defending the belt in a second-round KO against Adeilson Dos Santos in 2017, Magdaleno suffered an 11th-round KO loss to Isaac Dogboe in 2018. Magdaleno rebounded with two straight victories in 2019.
Dominican Republic's Vicente (36-4-2, 28 KOs) has won 11 of his past 12 fights, all by stoppage. In October, Vicente traveled to Puerto Rico and defeated Rodolfo Hernandez Montoya by fourth-round KO.
To follow social distancing guidelines, ESPN boxing commentator Joe Tessitore will call the fight from the studios in Bristol, Connecticut, with former world champions Timothy Bradley Jr. and Andre Ward and boxing analyst Mark Kriegel providing commentary from their respective homes. Reporter Bernardo Osuna will conduct interviews from Las Vegas.
