Carson sports fans have a decision to make tonight.

 

Two events tip off within a short drive of each other on Saturday, November 14: a nationally televised boxing card at Dignity Health Sports Park and a ranked matchup for the Cal State Dominguez Hills men's basketball team.

 

Boxing: Pacheco vs. Fulghum

 

Matchroom Boxing brings a super middleweight main event to the sports park at 18400 Avalon Boulevard.

 

Los Angeles-born Diego Pacheco puts his unbeaten record on the line against Darius Fulghum.

 

Streaming service DAZN lists Pacheco at 26-0 with 19 knockouts and Fulghum at 15-1-1 with 13 knockouts.

 

The undercard includes a world title fight, with Anthony Olascuaga defending his WBO flyweight belt against Yuberjen Martinez.

 

Also on the bill are a lightweight bout between Charlie Sheehy and Gabriel Flores Jr. and a heavyweight contest between David Adeleye and Alexander Flores.

 

The venue's event page shows a 1:30 p.m. start for the day's program.

 

DAZN lists its main card coverage beginning at 5 p.m. Pacific, with the main event ring walks expected around 8:10 p.m.

 

As with any fight card, the later times can shift depending on how long the earlier bouts last.

 

According to the venue, the card is part of the monthly boxing series from TNT Sports and DAZN, and it airs in the United States on TNT, truTV and DAZN.

 

Tickets are sold through AXS, and the sports park advises fans not to bring bags of any kind.

 

Basketball: Toros host No. 11 Point Loma

 

Across town on the CSUDH campus, the Toros men's basketball team gets a big early-season test.

 

Cal State Dominguez Hills hosts No. 11 Point Loma at 6 p.m. at the Torodome, according to the team's schedule.

 

The Toros will be looking to bounce back from a heartbreaker.

 

They fell to Vanguard 80-78 in overtime on Friday night in their home opener.

 

That followed a season-opening 83-63 road win over Dominican University of California on November 9.

 

If you cannot make it tonight, the Toros are home again Wednesday, November 18, against Hawai'i Pacific at 6 p.m.

 

They also host Westmont on Saturday, November 28, at 3 p.m.

 

Toros women on the road

 

The CSUDH women's team is playing in a regional crossover event in Los Angeles this weekend.

 

The Toros dropped a 71-55 decision to No. 21 Western Washington on Friday and were scheduled to face Seattle Pacific at 1 p.m. Saturday.

 

Their next game is Monday, November 16, at Biola at 7 p.m.

 

Game times can change, so check the team and venue sites before you head out.

 

The Carson Courier will have results in its evening edition.
