Alan Chaves and Christopher Diaz will headline the third edition of Matchroom Boxing’s Project Series on December 10 at Caribe Royale in Orlando, Florida.
Chaves vs. Diaz will be a 10-round lightweight bout and will stream on DAZN.
Chaves (22-1, 19 KOs) has experienced the highs and lows of boxing this year. The hard-hitting 25-year-old southpaw scored a “Knockout of the Year” contender with his devastating third-round knockout of Miguel Madueno in his U.S. debut on April 25 in Las Vegas. The momentum of that victory came crashing down when he was dropped four times by Eridson Garcia in a unanimous decision defeat in Newark, New Jersey, on September 4.
Diaz (30-6, 19 KOs) has been out of the ring since he lost a unanimous decision to then-IBF 130-pound champion Eduardo Nunez in September 2025. The 32-year-old Orlando native gave a spirited effort, though he was dropped twice in the seventh round.
Diaz will be making his lightweight debut against Chaves.
Rest of the card:
- Angel Barrientes (15-1, 9 KOs) vs. Alex Vallecillo (16-1, 13 KOs) - 10 rounds, junior featherweight
