Japan's Naoya Inoue returns to Vegas as he takes on Ramon Cardenas on Sunday, May 4, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Inoue-Cardenas and WBO featherweight champion Rafael Espinoza defends his title against Edward Vazquez in a world championship doubleheader live on ESPN, ESPN Deportes and ESPN+ at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT.

The Inoue-Cardenas card is scheduled to air immediately following the Sunday Night Baseball game between Shohei Ohtani’s Los Angeles Dodgers and the Atlanta Braves.

Undercard bouts will be announced soon and stream live and exclusively on ESPN+.

“This is a tremendous platform for Inoue to perform, as he and the incomparable Ohtani are two of Japan’s most decorated athletes,” said Top Rank Chairman Bob Arum. “This promises to be a special event at T-Mobile Arena and for boxing fans watching on ESPN.”
