Undefeated Forestville, MD super lightweight Mykal "The Professor" Fox will have perhaps the toughest bout of his career when he battles fellow undefeated "The Descendant of Tamerlane" Shohjahon Ergashev of Detroit, MI by way of Uzbekistan on Friday, February 15th at the Kansas Star Arena in Mulvane, KS. The bout will be a main event contest on a ShoBox telecast on Showtime.
Fox (19-0, five KO's) is coming off a second-round TKO over previously undefeated Gonzalo Carlos Dallera on December 8th in Bowie, MD. Ergashev is the second straight undefeated boxer and the 10th straight boxer with an over-.500 record Fox has faced.
Ergashev (15-0, 14 KO's) is a four-time Uzbekistan amateur champion who defeated Uzbekistan Olympic silver medalist Shakhram Giyasov in the amateurs. Ergashev has back-to-back first-round knockout victories including one over Nazareno Gaston Ruiz on December 14th in Krasnodar, Russia. This will be Ergashev's second appearance on ShoBox. Ergashev scored a third-round TKO over previously undefeated Sonny Fredrickson on January 12th in Verona, NY.
