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:

Thursday, February 15 – Commerce Casino, Commerce, Calif.

Joseph Diaz Jr. vs. Jesus Perez – junior welterweight – 10 rounds
