Matias-Smith Heading to Puerto Rico After Purse Bid Win

Fresh Productions, the career-long promoter for the two-time 140lbs titlist, outbid Matchroom Boxing to claim the rights to Matias’ WBC mandatory title fight against England’s Dalton Smith. Tuesday’s purse bid hearing in Mexico City saw Fresh Productions post a bid of $1,900,000, which outpaced the $1,710,000 offer posted by Matchroom, Smith’s promoter.
