Conceicao vs. Foster II Set for November 2
The much-anticipated rematch between Robson Conceicao and O’Shaquie Foster is set for Saturday, November 2. Their first bout four months ago left Foster feeling robbed on the scorecards as Conceicao secured a split decision, earning his world title in what Foster believes was an unfair ruling. This time, both fighters are determined to leave no room for doubt, and fans expect a clash with more aggression and intensity from both men. The main card will air on ESPN+ at 5:50 p.m. ET, with a co-feature bout between Raymond Muratalla and Jesus Perez at 10 p.m. ET.
Foster, holding a record of 22-3 with 12 KOs, faces mounting pressure to reclaim the WBC title he won in early 2023. Known for his skill in landing precision punches, Foster will need to avoid the errors of his first fight, where judges appeared to favor Conceicao’s activity over Foster’s accuracy. Conceicao, the 2016 Olympic gold medalist, is nearing the latter years of his career and is determined to hold onto his hard-won title, especially as he eyes potential bouts with other top titleholders in the division.
Undercard Highlights and Other Key Matches
The Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, New York, will host a series of enticing undercard fights alongside the main event.
