Upper Marlboro, MD welterweight Mykal "The Professor" Fox is officially a world-ranked contender. Fox (20-1, five KO's) is ranked 15th in the world by the WBA.
Fox will risk that ranking on Saturday, September 14th when he takes on Eudy "Ak-47" Bernado of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic in a 10-round bout at the Wind Creek Events Center (formerly the Sands Bethlehem Events Center) in Bethlehem, PA.
Fox is coming off a 10-round unanimous decision over previously undefeated Fazliddin Gaibnazarov on May 11th in Tucson, AZ. Bernado (25-4, 18 KO's) bounced back from a March loss by winning a six-round unanimous decision over Jesus Alberto Morales on July 5th in Ciudad Acuna, Mexico.
By the way, Fox is not the only world-ranked boxer in his family. Older brother Alantez "SlyAza" Fox is currently ranked third in the world by the WBO and 13th by the IBF.
