PrintThere's no big marquee event this weekend, but we've still got a couple fights on the week 5 line-up. First up on Friday is the English heavyweight title rematch between Tyson Fury and John McDermott, followed by Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. taking on John Duddy on Saturday. If you missed the opening few weeks of the new season, there might not be enough time to catch up to the leaders, but weekly honors are still at stake, so please join right in (just make sure to check out week one's post to familiarize yourself with the changes we've made for season 2).
