Lubin and Cota will open the broadcast with an elimination bout for the WBC Super Welterweight World Championship held by undefeated champion Jermell Charlo, who is due a mandatory bout against No. 1 contender Charles Hatley. The highly regarded Lubin (17-0, 12 KOs) will face his toughest opponent to date in Cota (25-1, 22 KOs) as both men vie for their first world title shot.

"I'm very excited that I have the opportunity to showcase my skills on CBS, especially on one of the most anticipated fight cards in boxing," said Lubin. "I'm facing a tough, rugged fighter in Jorge Cota, who I know is coming to fight. He's got a lot of heart and fans are going to witness a great battle between two warriors who are going to leave everything in the ring. This will be my New York debut at Barclays Center in Brooklyn and I can't wait to give the fans a great performance."

If Lubin wins, he's becomes Mandatory for Jermell Charlo



Andrade has been removed from the WBC rankings, so Lubin becoming the mandatory will suffice

Wanted that CharloPack

Guess we'll have to smoke Cuban

Lubin vs Mell

You know he won't get it right away since Hatley a mando he'll probably take some other touches before Hammer get that shot. So Hurd Harrison is for what body?

I didn't see the point of them fighting at 142 in the 1st place....might as well have it at 147.



AB cant make 140 no more, no matter how much he tries to force it, his body is done getting down to that weight it seems.

He shoulda done moved up N been getting his body ready growing into 147

No stan shyt etc... But Look at Swift... 3 fights @ 147... Now the big fight vs Thurman N Danny no longer looking like that small Walterweight

AB got plenty of options at 147 before the Champs/elite

How is he unable to make weight?


He was going to make 142, but decided that was pointless because he wasnt going to make it down there (and it's a Welterweight catchweight anyways)....so to just have it at the full Welterweight limit, instead of having it at 142.



I can see if this happened on February 17th, but this was already known by Granados
