Raymond Muratalla vs. Andy Cruz live updates, results, highlights

The first Matchroom Boxing card of 2026 is on Saturday night from the Bleau Live Arena in Las Vegas, exclusively on DAZN.

One of the best fights to be made in boxing headlines the event as Raymond Muratalla looks to defend the IBF lightweight championship against two-time Olympic gold medalist Andy Cruz.

Muratalla (23-0, 17 KOs) won the interim IBF belt in May by defeating Zaur Abdullaev via unanimous decision. He got elevated to full titleholder after the retirement of Vasiliy Lomachenko. 

Cruz (6-0, 3 KOs) is getting a championship opportunity in only the seventh fight of his career. In his last time out, Cruz stopped Hironori Mishiro in the fifth round back in June to earn the crack at Muratalla. 

This battle could go either way. Who leaves "Sin City" with the gold?
