Adams faces Duversonne, who was announced as a late replacement after original opponent Serhii Bohachuk was forced to withdraw after testing positive for Covid-19.

In the co-feature, former Olympic hopeful Brian Ceballo meets Larry Gomez in 10 rounds of welterweight action. In other featured fights, Gor Yeritsyan will fight Mahonri Montes in an eight-round battle of welterweights and heavyweight contender Danielle Perkins will face Princess Hairston in a six-round matchup.
Former two-time welterweight champion Shawn Porter will call the action alongside NBC Sports play-by-play commentator Bob Papa. Brian Campbell will serve as fight night analyst with Curran Bhatia reporting from ringside.
