Olympic champion Gable Steveson will fight Hugo Lezama on February 19 at Mexico Fight League 3 in Monterrey.
The bout marks Steveson’s toughest test after two rapid knockout wins in his MMA debut year.
Lezama brings an 11-3 record, a major step up from Steveson’s previous opponents.
Former UFC fighter Matt Brown believes Steveson could already beat elite heavyweights.
