Superfly (boxing)

Superfly was a series of professional boxing cards centered around the super flyweight division.

History

The concept was created by promoter Tom Loeffler and has been broadcast on HBO Boxing After Dark. The events were originally meant to showcase Román González, regarded as the best active boxer, pound for pound, at the time. But the two events to date have been headlined by Srisaket Sor Rungvisai, following his knockout win over the former at the first installment of the series.

Historically, American audiences have rarely been interested in fighters at lower weight classes. However, the Superfly events are built to showcase several of the best fighters at super flyweight and adjacent divisions.
