Teofimo Lopez vs Steve Claggett weigh-in results

Tonight at 10pm ET / 7pm PT / 3am BST LIVE on ESPN, ESPN Deportes & ESPN+

Raised in South Florida, WBO and Ring Magazine junior welterweight champion Teofimo Lopez (20-1, 13 KOs) is primed for the Miami spotlight. Lopez hopes to bring the heat Saturday night when he defends his titles against Canadian challenger Steve Claggett (38-7-2, 26 KOs) at James L. Knight Center in Miami, Florida.

Lopez is making the second defence of the titles he won from Scot Josh Taylor via upset unanimous decision last June. He defended the crown in February against Jamaine Ortiz and now turns his attention to Claggett, a Calgary native who is unbeaten in nine fights since 2021.

In the 10-round featherweight co-feature, Cuban former world champion Robeisy Ramirez (13-2, 8 KOs) returns against Mexico’s Brandon Leon Benitez (21-2, 9 KOs). If Ramirez is successful on Saturday, he could be in line for a rematch against WBO champion Rafael Espinoza, who dethroned him in an instant classic last December.

The six-round televised opener will see middleweight prospect Nico Ali Walsh (10-1, 5 KOs) attempt to avenge his only pro defeat in a rematch against Sona Akale (9-1, 4 KOs).
