How to watch Cordina vs Rakhimov: Live stream, TV channel, price for boxing tonight

Joe Cordina and Shavkat Rakhimov clash for the IBF super-featherweight world title in Cardiff tonight.

Ten months have passed now since the Welshman’s career-defining night in boxing, when he delivered a brutal second-round knockout of Japan’s Kenichi Ogawa to realise his world championship dreams in front of an adoring home crowd.

But Cordina’s euphoria sadly proved preciously short-lived as he was stripped of the belt without making a single defence, with a hand injury sustained against Ogawa forcing him out of a mandatory defence against Rakhimov.

Now it is the undefeated southpaw from Tajikistan who has the gold, hauling himself off the canvas to stop Zelfa Barrett in Abu Dhabi in November to pick up the vacant crown. Here’s everything you need to know about where to watch tonight’s action as Cordina look to become a two-time world champion.
