Ochocinco, making his boxing debut, will have quite the challenge on his hands with Maxwell. The 33-year-old is bringing immense combat sports experience in boxing, bare-knuckle boxing, and mixed martial arts. He recently competed in the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) but lost his most recent boxing match against Gaspard Pierre.
The two will go head-to-head on June 6th at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida. Fans can catch the fight on Showtime Pay-Per-View.
