Dorticos, Plania, Musadilov in Miami Nov 20
Boxing returns to Miami, Florida, on November 20 at the Manual Artime Community Center Theater. Former two-time cruiserweight world champion Yuniel Dorticos (24-2, 22 KOs) fights in Miami for the first time since 2014. Dorticos was born in Cuba but has been a long-time resident of Miami. He will take on journeyman Jesse Bryan (20-5-2, 16 KOs) of Missouri in a ten round cruiserweight contest. Dorticos has held both the IBF and WBA cruiserweight world titles.
World-ranked bantamweight Mike Plania of the Philippines takes on former two-time world title challenger Ricardo Nunez of Panama in a scheduled eight round bantamweight bout. Plania scored a huge upset of then highly world-ranked Joshua Greer in 2020. He is currently ranked by all four major sanctioning bodies.
Unbeaten WBA #13 ranked cruiserweight Serik Musadilov (10-0, 9 KOs) will look to remain unbeaten versus battle-tested veteran Shawn Miller (18-6-1, 7 KOs) in a ten round cruiserweight bout.
Highly touted super featherweight prospect Frank Diaz (9-0, 8 KOs) of Miami by way of Cuba steps up to take on fellow prospect Luis Lebron (17-2-1) of Puerto Rico. The bout is scheduled for eight rounds and the WBA Fedecentro super featherweight title.
“November 20th’s card will have a former two-time world champion, multiple world-ranked fighters, and many competitive fights. It is a complete show for the fans,” said William Ramirez (WRAM Boxing).
