Jaime Munguia vs Liam Smith takes place on Saturday, July 21 in Las Vegas at 10pm ET and 7pm PT - so that's 3am BST.
The venue for the fight is Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Tonight the current WBO junior middleweight champion, Jaime "The Beast" Munguia takes on Liverpool's former World light-middleweight champion Liam "Beefy" Smith in Las Vegas' Hard Rock Cafe in a battle for the title.
The 21-year-old Munguia is back after thrashing Sadam Ali for the WBO title. Now, just two months later, Munguia is defending his title against a more evenly matched 154lb 29-year-old Liam Smith. As a former title holder Smith will be hungry to win. Especially as the Ali fight, which won Munguia the title, was meant for him originally before he had to pull out.
Beefy Smith will fight for the first time in the capital of US boxing, Las Vegas. On top of that he's taking on an unbeaten Munguia who has a stunning 26 knockouts in 29 bouts.
Smith says: "Munguia is obviously a dangerous puncher and I’ll have to be wary of him early on, but he’s never fought someone as good as me and a fully-fledged 154lb fighter."
If you want to see his words backed up with fists, you've come to the right place. Read on to find out how you can live stream the Munguia vs Smith boxing from anywhere in the world.
