Detroit's Night of Boxing: Curry vs. Scott II headline an explosive night
Tonight - Saturday, December 20 - the sport of boxing makes its return to one of its most storied venues - The Fox Theatre in Detroit, MI.
World title drama, veteran action, and heavyweight fireworks, this night has something for every fight fan.
Curry vs. Scott II - A rivalry with more than just history
USA’s Olivia Curry and Australia's Kaye Scott reignite one of the fiercest rivalries in the sport. Their first clash was in September of 2025 - a 10-round back-and-forth war that ended in a draw.
Their battle was widely recognized as one of the most compelling fights in women’s boxing. This isn’t just a rematch, this is unfinished business – both world middleweight titles in the WBC and WBA are on the line, all bound together by this redemption story.
At 36 years old, Curry has a combined style of strength and pressure, with a relentless engine and power. She started her boxing journey in her later years after pivoting from Muay Thai.
Scott, at 41, is a veteran of the sport hailing from Down Under - bringing a polished approach to her game, rooted in fundamentals. She’s fought and won multiple regional titles and has carved a very impressive late career run.
This fight isn’t just about revenge for what happened in September, it’s a chance to leave Detroit the unified world champion.

Harrison vs. Chaves - the comeback in the face of relentless pressure
In the co-headliner we have the American Tony “Super Bad” Harrison facing off against Argentina’s Brian “El Elegante” Chaves. A classic matchup between a seasoned veteran experience against rising ambition.
Once holding the belt, Harrison is a former world champion who has been rebuilding his legacy after some time away from the bright lights. He’s shown he still has the skillset and the discipline to compete at a high level, and this fight is another step on his path.
Harrison is known for his classic sharp jab, resilience, and ring generalship. He’s had big fights at the highest level, showcasing his skill and toughness when he recently returned to the ring in 2025.
Chaves brings a much more pressure-oriented and aggressive style. In his last bout against Matias Diaz, he showcased his inside work and relentlessness while in the pocket.
This type of bout can swing in any direction - with tactical discipline or bursts of pressure shaping the outcome. Experience vs. momentum takes physical form at the highest level.

Taylor vs. Polite-Coffie - the ultimate test in heavyweight prospects
Rising heavyweight interest is poured all over this matchup between an undefeated prospect and war-tested veteran. Heavyweights are known for bringing the most potential for knockouts, and we expect his firework show to be a sight to see.
Pryce Taylor, a 29-year-old from Brooklyn, NY, represents the future wave of American heavyweight talent. At 6'4" and 275 lbs, Taylor combines his physical presence with punishing attacks to the body, all under a composure beyond his years.
Michael Polite-Coffie brings a special type of experience from his years facing high-caliber opponents. Through his time in the ring he’s faced off against giants like Fabio Wardley and Gurgen Hovhannisyan, and now he looks to take down a rising star to revitalize his claim in the sport.
A potential instant-classic - this bout is draped in stylistic contrast - youth and athleticism vs. veteran savvy. It’s more than any undercard filler, it’s an early chapter in an exciting heavyweight story.
Detroit is coldest in the winter
We can’t only just expect to see one great fight, December 20 is draped in the tapestry of many compelling narratives.
A high-stakes world title rematch between to warriors, a veteran’s comeback fighting against a relentless challenger, and a showdown at heavyweight that could spotlight the next major contender in the division.
Tactical boxing, wars of will, and knockout power - all threads that tie this night together into one exploding vision of boxing prowess.
