I wonder why the fight is going to be held in Puerto Rico Both are not natives of that country, and since Paro just won the title, he should opt to hold his first title defense in Australia. I checked on Hitchin's previous fights, and he is not considered on Paro's level, but the determination is there in his every fight. He will have a hard time with Paro, but I don't rule out an upset. If Paro upsets Subriel Matias why not Hitchins?

I got curious so I did some digging and found this article(1) and from the headlines it mentioned that "Puerto Rican stars feature on stacked undercard", so I am guessing the reason they are fighting in Puerto Rico is because of the stacked Puerto Rican undercards

I read that Hearns is the promoter of the fight; he should have done Paro a favor by holding the fight in Australia, and Paro is insisting that the fight be held there.
Well, I guess the reason Paro agreed is because the Puerto Ricans are not hostile to him. Even though he took the title from their promising boxer, Subriel Matias, I hope Hitchins wins the fight so he can have a title fight in his native country, Australia. He is a hero now in Australia, and the Australians will love to have him fight in Australia.

By the way these are the undercards of the Paro - Hitchins fight, it really is loaded with Puerto Rico boxing stars.
