With undefeated records, divisional stakes, and championship implications across multiple bouts, fans have every reason to lock in early as this stacked lineup sets the tone for a pivotal year in boxing.

Agit Kabayel vs Damian Knyba – Heavyweight (WBC interim title)
Agit Kabayel returns to the spotlight this weekend with far more than a routine comeback on the line, as he steps into a WBC interim heavyweight title fight that could finally secure the world-title opportunity he has been chasing.
Fighting on home soil in Oberhausen, the unbeaten German meets Poland’s undefeated Damian Knyba in a matchup designed to clarify the division’s next legitimate contender.
Kabayel, now 33, has built real momentum in recent years, piecing together a defining three-fight run that included stoppage victories over Arslanbek Mahmudov, Frank Sanchez and, most notably, Zhilei Zhang. That win over Zhang elevated Kabayel into the global conversation and positioned him as a viable future opponent for reigning champions Oleksandr Usyk or Fabio Wardley.
However, nearly a year has passed since that breakthrough performance. With the interim belt at stake, Kabayel must reassert his dominance to remain firmly in the world-title picture.
