Boxing schedule for April 29-May 3, 2026: Naoya Inoue vs Junto Nakatani, David Benavidez vs Zurdo Ramirez, and more
Naoya Inoue faces Junto Nakatani to stay undisputed, and David Benavidez challenges Zurdo Ramirez at cruiserweight! | AFP via Getty Images Wednesday, April 29th DAZN, 5:00 am ET, Skye Nicolson vs Mariah Turner. From Flemington, Australia.
For Nicolson’s WBC interim super bantamweight title. Australia vs New Zealand in the main event, where both fighters have just one blemish on their pro records. Teremoana Teremoana fights in support in an eight-rounder, though I wouldn’t expect it to last anywhere near that long.
Also on the undercard is Jonte Metaxas, who shares a last name with a… politically complicated former Greek Prime Minister/dictator who inspired Oxi Day , one Greece’s biggest national holidays. Friday, May 1st DAZN, 2:00 pm ET, Chaos in the Ring. From Lagos, Nigeria.
The main event here is Carter Efe vs Portable. Carter Efe is an “online streamer and comedian” who uses a blackface photo of himself as profile photos on Twitch and Twitter. Portable is described as “controversial,” presumably over multiple arrests for assault.
But, he’s also described as “one of the more credible fighters among Nigerian entertainers who have stepped into the ring in recent years. ” So… There you go. This is not just Nigerian sub-Misfits, though.
