Robson Conceicao vs O'Shaquie Foster fight time, how to watch, live updates, card
After a highly controversial decision in July, Robson Conceicao and O'Shaquie Foster are running it back.
Foster challenges Conceicao for the WBC junior lightweight title a belt on Saturday. Foster held the belt for over a year before Conceicao defeated him this past summer by a controversial split decision. The decision drew immediate backlash from the majority of boxing fans, who believed Foster had done more than enough to win after outlanding Conceicao in 10 of the 12 rounds.
The WBC promptly ordered an immediate rematch , and just four months later the fighters are ready to step back in the ring.
"I ain't really trying to dwell on the judges (in the first fight)," Foster said at a press conference. "I wish them the best, but this fight, I plan on coming in and dominating to the best of my ability."

O'Shaquie Foster vs Robson Conceicao fight prediction
If not for the surprising scorecards, the first fight between Foster and Conceicao would not have lived long in the memory of boxing fans due its lack of action. The rematch isn't likely to sniff fight of the year conversations either, but it should provide more action with Foster likely to up his offensive output with July's decision still top of mind.
Foster boxed and moved well in the last fight, hardly getting hit by Conceicao despite the Brazilian throwing over 700 punches (landed at a 10.8% rate). We're likely to see similar defensive resilience from him while he slightly boosts his pressure of Conceicao in hopes of winning over the judges this time around.
Conceicao has said he'll look to assert himself in this fight, but he'll have to find a way to land more meaningful shots, with his strategy from July's fight unlikely to produce the same result if Saturday's rematch goes the distance.
