Ayala & Ubiedo vs Rodríguez & Cardozo: Río de la Plata derby in the ring | OneFootball

Argentinian and Uruguayan boxing will face off this Saturday at the Frontón of the Municipal Campus of Maldonado. In the main event, Cristian Ayala (14-3-1, 5 KOs) will face Víctor Rodríguez (16-1-1, 9 KOs) in the super welterweight category, while Laureano Ubiedo (17-2, 10 KOs) will take on Javier Cardozo (9-1, 7 KOs) in lightweight. Both fights are scheduled for ten rounds.

Ayala returns to the ring after more than two years away from TyC Sports, aiming to regain the form that led him to become the Latin OMB and Argentine welterweight champion in 2023. Rodríguez, on the other hand, is coming off his first loss in the United States against Raúl Curiel and seeks revenge in the Río de la Plata region.

Ubiedo will try to move past his recent defeat against Maximiliano Verón and reaffirm his place among the top ranks of national boxing. His opponent, Cardozo, has accumulated experience in Buenos Aires and arrives after notable performances against Nahuel Espindola, Elías Duguet, and Facundo Gorsd.

The card will also feature young prospects from both countries in matches that complete an attractive program of fights, including: Oscar Bonifacino vs. Carlos Alarcón (featherweight), Elizabeth Cabrera vs. Luz Natalia Córdoba (featherweight), Dahiana Sellanes vs. Daniela Telis (lightweight), and several more matchups in welterweight, lightweight, and super lightweight categories.

The event will be broadcast live on TyC Sports Play starting at 19:00 and on TyC Sports from 21:40, in the Boxeo de Primera cycle. A day where the Argentine-Uruguayan rivalry moves from football to the ring, promising intense and spectacular fights.
