Jared Anderson v Zhan Kossobutskiy: Fight date, ring walk time, undercard & betting odds

Jared Anderson takes on Zhan Kossobutskiy in what looks like an interesting heavyweight contest at the Huntington Center in Toledo, Ohio.

Anderson is unbeaten in 14 professional contests and Big Baby will have a home Toledo crowd on side at the Huntington Centre.

Kossobutskiy is also undefeated in 19 pro bouts, but the Kazakhstan banger is considered a 4/1 outsider on his trip to Ohio.

Anderson is 1/6 to record a 15th straight victory, and while there are good wins over Jerry Forrest and George Arias on the 23-year-old's card, this represents an excellent opportunity to make an impact on the heavy-hitting scene.

Are there any belts on the line for Jared Anderson v Zhan Kossobutskiy?

There are no belts on the line in Ohio, but Anderson gets the opportunity to headline a fight card for the first time.

Big Baby is ranked at number seven in the world by the WBO and number 11 by both the WBC and WBA and this is a good opportunity to move further up the pecking order as he targets future title bouts.

What is Jared Anderson’s record?

Anderson has won all of his 14 professional contests, with all of those coming by stoppage. The majority of those bouts have been low-key fights, but Big Baby has been on some big fight cards and there is some substance to the record.

The 23-year-old has recorded good wins over Forrest and Arias and the second-round stoppage victory over the former reads well, given the durability Slugger has shown when going the distance with the likes of Kubrat Pulev, Michale Hunter, Zhilei Zhang and Carlos Takam.

Anderson landed 54 of the 111 punches that he threw against Forrest and that all-action fan-friendly style should serve the Toledo man well.

What is Zhan Kossobutskiy’s record?

Kossobutskiy has won all of his 19 professional fights, with 18 of those coming by stoppage. The Kazakhstan man is an interesting contender, in that he didn’t turn pro until 2017, and the 34-year-old is running out of time to make a serious impact in the heavyweight division.

The big-punching Kazakh faced former WBC world title challenger Johann Duhaupas for the vacant WBC International heavyweight title last year, Kossobutskiy got the job done and that was followed by a victory over Hussein Muhamed in Germany.

Who is on the undercard for Jared Anderson v Zhan Kossobutskiy?

Arslanbek Makhmudov will battle Raphael Akpejiori in another heavyweight clash that serves as the co-feature event.
