Unfortunately, Joe Smith Jr. has the flu, which has progressed to pneumonia, so we’ve moved the event date. We wish him a full and speedy recovery and look forward to his main fight against Devonte Williams.
Smith’s last fight was against Gilberto Ramirez in October 2023. That match went the full distance, resulting in a unanimous decision loss for Joe. His professional boxing record stands at 28 wins (22 by knockout) and five losses.
