Magomed Alievich Madiev vs. Omar José García González

Taking place tomorrow (probably about this exact time of day) in Makhachkala. Madiev is 10-0 (4) and González 10-0 (8) - so barring a NC or draw, somebody's W column goes to eleven, while somebody else's 0 must go!

This should air on the Patriot Boxing Promotions channel on YouTube (here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKcm40yqBPBPxv38rRckJ1A) as did the card for Shishkin vs. Khomitsky a couple of weeks ago. If that event is any indication, coverage of the full undercard is likely but watch out for technical difficulties...

Madiev - originally from Makhachkala but now residing in Chekhkov - is yet another young Russian crossover from kickboxing, in which he was a regional (all-Dagestani) champion. He is scheduled to box twelve full rounds for the first time in his career (wetting his feet with 10-rounders last year by claiming the vacant WBA middleweight Asian title), and has previously fought all but once in Moscow.

González - originally from Venezuela but now residing in Mexico (in which pair of countries all of his bouts have been contained) - is ½" taller and has previously fought at super middle & light heavyweight exclusively...and only in 4- and 6-rounders.

IB Funfact: the last time somebody from the North Caucasus fought somebody from Venezuela is when Isa Chaniev upset Ismael Barroso, a month ago tomorrow.
