Ilunga Makabu is set to make the second defence of his WBC cruiserweight title against Thabiso Mchunu in Ohio. The 34-year-old Congolese fighter has been on a mean streak since his loss to Tony Bellew in May 2016. He has put together a nine-fight winning streak and produced a devastating seventh-round knockout in his last fight against Olanrewaju Durodola at the end of 2020. The fight will be streamed live on Fite TV in both the U.S. and UK. Check the Fite website for availability in all other countries.
