At long last, unbeaten welterweight Karim “Hard Hitta” Mayfield of San Francisco has landed a televised bout when he faces former world champion Steve “2 Pounds” Forbes this Friday.
Billed as the “Friday Night Fights” co-feature to Fernando Guerrero’s NABF light middleweight title fight against Grady Brewer, the heavy-handed Mayfield (13-0-1, 8 KOs) will travel to the Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Tex., for his first bout (ESPN2, 6 p.m.) in a little over a year.
“I’ve been staying busy, and now it’s worth the wait,” said the jovial Mayfield of his inactive spell. “I’m excited that the fight’s finally here, and I’m looking forward to the challenge.”
