Carl Frampton (20-0, 14 KOs) vs. Alejandro Gonzalez (25-1-2, 15 KOs)

Premier Boxing Champions brings Part 1 of a Texas doubleheader to the Don Haskins Center in El Paso on Saturday afternoon when Northern Ireland’s Carl Frampton defends his IBF world super bantamweight title against Mexico’s Alejandro Gonzalez. The fight airs on CBS beginning at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT.

Frampton-Gonzalez serves as an appetizer for the matchup between Julio Cesar Chaves Jr. and Marcos Reyes at the same venue later in the evening, but there is still plenty of intrigue to be found in the matinee bout.
