Premier Boxing Champions’ latest event airs on NBC Sports Network beginning at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT and also features a 175-pound contest between Eleider Alvarez and Isidro Ranoni Preito.
After beginning his career 30-0, Bute has lost two of his last three, including a setback at 175 pounds against Jean Pascal in his last visit to the Bell Centre.
