Almost four years since his last stateside appearance, Japanese fistic icon Naoya Inoue is set to return. Tickets for Inoue’s undisputed junior featherweight championship title defense against San Antonio’s Ramon Cardenas — Sunday, May 4, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada — are on sale now.
In the co-feature, Mexican star Rafael “El Divino” Espinoza will defend his WBO featherweight world title against Edward Vazquez.
Promoted by Top Rank, in association with Ohashi Promotion, Teiken Promotions, and Sampson Boxing, tickets for this world title doubleheader can be purchased via AXS.com.
This marks the first U.S. appearance for Inoue (29-0, 26 KOs) since June 2021, when he stopped Michael Dasmarinas in three rounds.
“The Monster” has fought eight times since, capturing the undisputed title in a pair of weight classes while maintaining his lofty perch as one of the world’s elite pound-for-pound fighters. Cardenas (26-1, 14 KOs) is a world-ranked contender riding a 14-bout winning streak.
