WBC Middleweight Champion Carlos Adames retained his title with a unanimous decision win over Austin Williams, 118-108, 117-109, 117-109, as you can see how the fight played out live.

Adames was looking for his third successful defense. He entered the ring following a points victory over Terrell Gausha and a split draw against Hamzah Sheeraz in February 2025. After a setback against Sheeraz in 2024, Williams had undergone a total career reinvention. Williams has won four consecutive fights in the last 14 months. This included wins over Patrice Volny and Wendy Toussaint on January 31. Here is how the fight played out live.
