The PBC on Prime Video pay-per-view event on March 28 headlined by WBC junior middleweight champion Sebastian Fundora and challenger Keith Thurman will be preceded by a three-fight show on Prime Video.
The stream will begin at 2:30 p.m. PDT/5:30 p.m. EDT at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
Headlining the non-PPV portion of the program – which is billed as First on Prime – is a 10-round super middleweight bout between Elijah Garcia and Kevin Newman.
“I’m working hard and can’t wait to show everything we’ve been working on in camp," Garcia said in a statement. “This is a big opportunity to make a statement at super middleweight, and I’m gonna make the most of it.”
Garcia (17-1, 13 KOs), a 22-year-old southpaw from Arizona, appeared to be on the verge of a breakout in 2023, highlighted by a knockout victory over Armando Resendiz, who has since picked up a notable win over Caleb Plant and is the current WBA 168-pound champion.
However, Garcia's momentum stalled over his next two bouts, putting his title hopes on uncertain footing.
He absorbed the first defeat of his career in June 2024, dropping a split decision to Kyrone Davis. Garcia returned last March and edged out a split decision against Terrell Gausha. But the outcome sparked debate, as Garcia was knocked down in the opening round, and Gausha held a significant edge in punches landed.
Newman (18-3-1, 11 KOs) is riding a seven-fight winning streak over the last five years and will further look to derail Garcia’s career.
“I’m coming to put on a dominant performance from start to finish,” Newman said in a statement.
Kicking off the televised action is a 10-round lightweight fight between Kaipo Gallegos (11-0-1, 9 KOs) and Julian Gonzalez (16-1-1, 12 KOs).
Also featured on the card is a six-round featherweight fight between Brayan Gonzalez, who is unbeaten in four fights, and Brandon Guerrero.
