The weekend is approaching, and from Friday to Sunday it will be “fight-o-clock” somewhere in the world. Every Thursday, The Ring will bring you the most up-to-date information on the most relevant fights you need to see in this week-at-a-glance, one-stop enhanced fight schedule. A quick checklist for the cognoscenti, a useful nuts-and-bolts guide for the boxing neophyte is what we’re aiming at.

Here are this week’s most relevant fights:

Friday, November 3 – County Coliseum, El Paso, Texas

Jorge Tovar vs. Marcelo Bzowski – middleweight – 8 rounds

Stephanie Han vs. Simone da Silva – women’s lightweight – 8 rounds

Brittany Sims vs. Naomi Bosques – women’s bantamweight – 8 rounds

Amy Salinas vs. Ashley Sciscente – women’s flyweight – 8 rounds

Saturday, November 4, Casino de Monte Carlo, Monaco  

Joe Cordina vs. Edward Vazquez – junior lightweight – 12 rounds

Cordina seems to be in his absolute prime, and will be defending the IBF belt that he grabbed in stunning fashion with a highlight-reel stoppage of Kenichi Ogawa in Japan back in June of last year against the dangerous, once-beaten Vazquez.

Also on this card:

Sivenathi Nontshinga vs. Adrian Curiel – junior flyweight – 12 rounds

Souleymane Cissokho vs. Isaias Lucero – junior middleweight – 12 rounds

Julissa Guzman vs. Ramla Ali – women’s junior featherweight – 10 rounds

Where to watch it: DAZN

Saturday, November 4 – Tahoe Blue Event Center, Lake Tahoe, Nev.  

Efe Ajagba vs. Joe Goodall – heavyweight – 10 rounds

Ajagba and Goodall’s rival stretches back to the amateurs, with Goodall earning a decision in the semifinals of the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland. Ten years later, the two are ready to settle the score in a fight that could earn the winner towards a title shot. A grudge match between once-beaten heavyweights seems like a solid recipe for some serious fireworks.

Also on this card:

Raymond Muratalla vs. Diego Torres – lightweight – 10 rounds

Henry Lebron vs. William Foster III – junior lightweight – 10 rounds

Brandon Moore vs. Robert Simms – heavyweight – 8 rounds

Omar Rosario vs. Angel Rebollar – junior welterweight – 8 rounds

Lindolfo Delgado vs. Luis Hernandez Ramos – junior welterweight – 8 rounds

Saturday, November 4 – Polideportivo de Cartago, Costa Rica  

Yokasta Valle vs. Anabel Ortiz – women’s strawweight – 10 rounds

A much-needed homecoming bout for Valle, one of the best in the game and currently rated in The Ring’s top ten pound-for-pound ratings, facing a Mexican legend with two belts on the line. Should be a display of phenomenal boxing skills.

Also on this card:

Santiago Dominguez vs. Nolberto Casco – welterweight – 8 rounds

Jose Alvarado vs. Moises Garcia – lightweight – 8 rounds

Maricela Cornejo vs. Cynthia Lozano – women’s middleweight – 8 rounds

Julio Herrera Miranda vs. Dennis Espinoza – bantamweight – 8 rounds

Saturday, November 4 – Casino Miami Jai Alai, Miami, Fla.  

Noel Gevor Mikaelian vs. Ilunga Makabu – cruiserweight – 12 rounds

Makabu lost his WBC cruiserweight title at the hands of Badou Jack earlier in the year, and he will have an opportunity to regain the now vacant belt when he faces Armenia’s Gevor Mikaelyan as part of legendary promoter Don King’s 92nd birthday bash.

Also on this card:

Trevor Bryan vs. Cassius Chaney – heavyweight – 10 rounds

Jonathan Guidry vs. Jesus Escalera – heavyweight – 10 rounds
