PBC Unveils FS1 Prelim Card For Peterson vs. Lipinets Event
The full-televised card for the upcoming PBC on FS1 event has been announced.
While the main and co-main event bouts had been previously set, the opening fight hasn’t until now. Once-beaten junior middleweight Jamontay Clark will face Vernon Brown on the opening fight of the March 24 PBC on FS1 card taking place at the MGM National Harbor in Maryland.
Clark is a 24-year-old fighter out of Cincinnati who has lost just once in his pro career. Sporting a 13-1 record with seven knockout victories, Clark’s 13-fight win streak was snapped in his last fight back in August 2018 when he dropped a 10-round unanimous decision to Jeison Rosario.
Brown is unbeaten as a pro fighter, winning 10 of his fights with one draw. Brown has won his last three fights, all taking place in 2018, and won two of those bouts by knockout. Brown last fought in October 2018 when he knocked out Marlon Lewis in the first round.
PBC also announced a three-fight prelim card that will air on Fox Sports 1 right before the main card. The prelim fights that were announced are the following:
– Jose Miguel Borrego vs Jerry Thomas: junior welterweight bout
– Brandon Quarles vs Aaron Coley: middleweight bout
– Lorenzo Simpson vs Earl Henry: junior middleweight bout
The main card on FS1 will be headlined by a 12-round welterweight bout between former world champions Lamont Peterson and Sergey Lipinets. The co-main event bout is a 10-round junior welterweight fight between Anthony Peterson and former super featherweight champion Argenis Mendez.
