MAIN EVENT:
Mexico's Burgos is coming off a 12-round draw in a Jr. Lightweight title challenge against Roman Martinez.
After that fight, ESPN.com boxing writer Dan Rafael wrote, "Making his first defense, Martinez escaped with his belt on another highly debatable decision. Almost all of press row, as well as the Twitterverse and HBO's Harold Lederman, had Burgos winning the fight. He hammered Martinez with hard body punches throughout the bout. According to CompuBox, Burgos landed more punches in 10 out of the 12 rounds. Burgos just seemed more in control, stronger and better able to do what he wanted to do. Martinez seemed to have a hard time dealing with his height and reach."
California's Amidu, who is co-managed by actor Vince Vaughn, is looking to rebound from a 10-round split decision loss to Haskell Rhodes.
"I've been working with Yakubu since he came to the United States," said Amidu's co-manager & trainer Baba Sumaila. "I managed his brother, Abdullai. So when Yakubu came here, I started working with him. Yakubu is always training. When we have a fight, he increases the tempo to make him more ready for the fight. We know our opponent is very good, but we're ready for that. We are ready."
