Henry Cejudo makes his professional boxing debut in Miami against undefeated prospect Javon “Wanna” Walton in an unusual crossover main event under the Misfits Boxing banner. Cejudo brings one of the most distinguished combat-sports résumés of his generation, having won Olympic gold in freestyle wrestling before becoming a two-division UFC champion, but now faces the challenge of adapting his skill set to professional boxing. Walton enters with a 3-0-1 record and significantly more recent experience under boxing rules, giving the younger fighter an opportunity to score the most recognizable victory of his career. With Cejudo replacing his MMA gloves for boxing gloves and Walton stepping into a major-event spotlight, the matchup combines elite combat-sports pedigree with the unpredictability that defines crossover boxing.
