CLEVELAND (May 8, 2026) — Tickets for the WBO lightweight world title showdown between Abdullah Mason and Joe Cordina — Saturday, July 4, at Cleveland State University’s Wolstein Center — are on sale now.

In the co-feature, WBC featherweight world champion Bruce “Shu Shu” Carrington (17-0, 10 KOs) makes his first defense against Mexico’s Rene Palacios (19-0-1, 10 KOs).

Additionally, Cleveland native and U.S. Olympian Tiger Johnson (17-0, 8 KOs) takes on fellow unbeaten Christopher Guerrero (16-0, 9 KOs) in a 10-rounder at welterweight, while undefeated lightweight knockout artist Deric “Scooter” Davis (11-0, 10 KOs) faces Carlos Ramos (18-4-1, 10 KOs) in an eight-round clash.

Mason (20-0, 17 KOs) makes his inaugural defense after capturing the crown with a dominant points triumph over unbeaten Sam Noakes last November in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The Cleveland native, boxing’s youngest reigning world champion at 22, returns home following a breakout four-fight 2025 campaign that also included stoppage wins over Manuel Jaimes, Carlos Ornelas and Jeremia Nakathila.

Cordina (19-1, 9 KOs), a Welsh former world champion and 2016 Olympian, enters his third lightweight assignment seeking to become a three-time, two-weight king. The 34-year-old won the IBF junior lightweight world title with a second-round knockout over Kenichi Ogawa in 2022 and regained it the following year with a decision over Shavkatdzhon Rakhimov. Since losing the belt to Anthony Cacace last May, Cordina has recorded victories over Jaret Gonzalez Quiroz and Gabriel Flores Jr.

Additional undercard action will feature Abdullah’s brothers in separate four-rounders, as Abdurrahman Mason (2-0, 2 KOs) sees action in a lightweight contest and Ibrahim Mason (2-0, 2 KOs) competes in a super featherweight tilt.
