Here's the full Tszyu vs. Ocampo fight card breakdown:

Tim Tszyu vs. Carlos Ocampo fight card

Tim Tszyu vs. Carlos Ocampo

Tszyu (22-0) is putting his mandatory position on the line when he takes on the tough Ocampo (35-2).

Errol Spence, at welterweight, and Sebastian Fundora are the only men to have defeated Ocampo and the Mexican will be desperate to spoil Tszyu's party on home soil.

The Aussie is yet to find a match for his high-pressure style but Mexican fighters are notoriously stubborn.

A win over Ocampo will be another feather in the cap for Tszyu and see him retain his interim WBO super-welterweight title as he charts a course towards Jermell Charlo and the undisputed title.

Sam Goodman vs. Ra'eese Aleem

The final bout on the card before the main event sees two of the top super-bantamweights in the world face off in an IBF title eliminator.

Rising New South Welshman Goodman (14-0) takes on the toughest test of his career in the form of Aleem (20-0).

A win for either man will make them mandatory challenger for a shot at IBF champ at 122-pounds, Marlon Tapales.

Justin Frost vs. Hassan Hamdan

The Australian super-lightweight title will be on the line when Frost (13-2-1) and Hamdan (5-0) meet on the undercard.

Queensland-based Frost will be hoping his experience is the difference in the 10-rounder against the Jeff Fenech-trained Hamdan.

Both men are coming off significant layoffs from their last fights - 10 months for Frost and more than a year for Hamdan.

Rocky Ogden vs. Mark Schleibs

Ogden (5-0) may only have a handful of fights to his name but he's made an impressive start to his professional career.

Mixing boxing with Muay Thai and MMA, Ogden captured the Australian featherweight title in his second fight before doing the same with the super-featherweight title in his third.

The Gold Coast local steps out in a featherweight clash here against Schleibs (12-1), a man who hasn't fought since falling to Brock Jarvis in 2020.

Ogden and Schleibs stole the show at the open workout and had to be separated after some pre-fight trash talk got them hot under the collar.

Vegas Larfield vs. Jhunrille Castino

The second super-bantamweight contest on the card sees exciting young Queenslander Larfield (8-0) take on Filipino Castino (13-2).

Larfield, still just 21, has recorded an impressive seven knockouts as a professional.

"Lethal" will be hoping to put on a show in front of his home crowd in this one.

Troy Pilcher vs. Hasely Hepi

Having fought to a draw when they clashed for the ANBF Queensland heavyweight title in September, both Hepi (6-1-1) and Pilcher (5-0-1) will be looking to make a statement here.

Hepi has had three fights since then, winning all by knockout, while Pilcher will be returning to action for the first time since September.

Both live on the Gold Coast and should have strong support on the day.

Liam Talivaa vs. Isaac Liki

A pair of heavyweights in Talivaa (4-0) and Justice Jackson (1-1) were due to meet on the world title undercard, however Jackson has been scratched from the card with Liki called in at late notice.

Talivaa has impressed in his early career and will hope to continue his rise up the ranks when he faces the Kiwi-born debutant.
