Robson Conceicao makes his first defense of his WBC super featherweight title against the still-salty former champion O’Shaquie Foster tonight in a rematch scheduled for 12 rounds at an event promoted by Top Rank in Verona, New York.

Foster (22-3, 12 KOs) was given a quick rematch due to fan complaints about the controversial 12-round knockout of Conceicao (19-2-1, 9 KOs) on July 13. It was a fight where Foster focused on defense and was outworked by Conceicao.

Tonight’s event begins at 10:00 pm ET on ESPN and ESPN+. The results will be shown below.

In the co-feature, undefeated lightweight Raymond Muratalla will face Jesus Perez in a 10-round contest. Muratalla (21-0, 16 KOs) needs a strong showing after his lackluster performance against Tevin Farmer on July 13.

Foster will need a much stronger offensive showing if he is to win tonight against 2016 Olympic gold medalist Conceicao.

The fight is in New York, and the fans expect to be entertained. Foster’s style is a 100% copy of Shakur Stevenson, with the three-step pullback move he uses. This approach does not work with fans and judges.

Indeed, Foster was heavily booed by fans in his fight against Conceicao last July at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. East Coast fans don’t like to watch fighters who use Foster’s striking style. He says he’s going to be more aggressive in this fight, but we’ll see tonight.
