When Regis Prograis faces Jose Zepeda, the former champion in Prograis believes the fight inside Carson, California’s Dignity Health Sports Park will be unlike anything boxing fans have ever seen.

Prograis has 23 wins via knockout in 28 pro fights. He has won three straight via TKO and four of his last five via the power punch. The former WBA junior-welterweight champion lost the title against Josh Taylor in 2019. On a three-fight win streak, Prograis faces someone in Zepeda with 27 knockout wins in 39 fights.
