On this episode of PBC Jabs, we preview the stacked lineup of talented fighters for our Jan. 28th card on Showtime. That includes two-division world champ Carl Frampton, who joins us for a round of Rapid Fire, and IBF world featherweight champ Lee Selby, who checks in before his own title fight that same night.
On January 28th PBC presents a championship doubleheader live on Showtime from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The co-main event will showcase WBC 135-pound champ Dejan Zlaticanin defending his title against former two-division champ Mikey Garcia, who fights for the second time since ending his lengthy layoff in July. Then comes the main event, in which Carl Frampton defends his 126-pound world title in a rematch against former three-division champ Leo Santa Cruz. Frampton was the consensus 2016 Fighter of the Year, so we know he can box. But a lot of us don’t know much about the Northern Irishman outside the ring, so we recently visited him at his Las Vegas-based training camp for a round of Rapid Fire.
Frampton-Santa Cruz isn’t the only featherweight title fight happening in Las Vegas on January 28th. Welshman Lee Selby also will make the third defense of his IBF championship against Argentinian Jonathan Barros that evening. Frampton told PBC that he would welcome a unification fight against his British rival if he defeats Santa Cruz a second time. We recently checked in with Selby to get his thoughts on this possible matchup, as well as his upcoming fight with Barros.

Thank you for watching and we’ll see you next time as we continue to bring YOU the best in boxing.
