Mexican star and former junior welterweight champion Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz will face reigning WBA junior lightweight champion Lamont Roach, a fight that will headline a PBC pay-per-view event on Prime Video on Saturday, December 6th from Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Texas. Roach will be moving up a weight class for the second time in two fights. The WBA 130-pound champion, he moved up to challenge WBA 135-pound champion Gervonta "Tank" Davis in his last fight. Roach performed spectacularly and was robbed by horrible officiating that failed to credit him with a knockdown, changing what should have been a Roach win into a draw. Davis badly ducked Roach's quest for a rematch, so Roach will now move up to 140 pounds.
