This event is promoted by Most Valuable Promotions and Real Fight Inc., and promises to be quite a successful one for all fighters on the card, especially when it comes to financial gain.
There are nine fights on the card, including the Paul versus Diaz headliner. The co-main event of the evening will witness Amanda Serrano defend her four featherweight titles against Heather Hardy. All eyes will be on the main event though as Paul and Diaz both have something to prove in Dallas, Texas.
