Tonight will see Arnold Barboza Jr.  back in action for the first time since his unssuccessful challengefor the WBO and Ring Magazine light welterweight titles last year, with Kenneth Sims Jr. his next opponent.

Barboza (32-1-0, 11 KOs) hasn't fought since May last year, when he lost a unanimous decision to then-WBO champion Teofimo Lopez at Times Square. It was the 34-year-old's first defeat, and he looks to get back to winning ways in Saturday's welterweight contest against Sims (22-3-1, 8 KOs), who is also coming off a loss.

Sims' most recent outing was against Oscar Duarte in August 2025, with the latter claiming a majority decision victory at the University of Illinois. Prior to that, Sims had won nine fights in a row.
