To celebrate his birthday, look back at a #GerogeForeman fight, his knockout victory over #JimmyEllis #FreeFight
Next Up for Top Rank Boxing, Joe Smith Jr. WBO light heavyweight world champion Joe Smith Jr will make his first title defense against an unlikely contender. British puncher Callum Johnson tested positive for COVID-19, so Smith will now face Steve Geffrard on Saturday, Jan. 15 at Turning Stone Resort Casino and LIVE on ESPN and ESPN Deportes (simulcast on ESPN+) at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT.
In the 10-round co-feature, featherweight contender Abraham Nova (20-0, 14 KOs), who was originally slated to fight Jose Enrique Vivas, will fight Dominican veteran William “El Gago” Encarnacion (19-1, 15 KOs) after Vivas dropped out with an injury.
"I give Steve credit for taking this fight on short notice,” Smith said. “He is a tough guy, and I expect him to bring everything he has for this opportunity. I'm ready to fight regardless of who is in the ring with me. My goal is the same, which is to defend my world title and keep it on Long Island where it belongs."
Geffrard said, “This is the opportunity of a lifetime. It’s crazy how boxing works. One moment I’m thinking about boxing on a local show, then the phone rings for a chance to fight for the WBO world title on ESPN. Unreal!”
Smith (27-3, 21 KOs), the fighting pride of Long Island, won the title last April with a majority decision over Maxim Vlasov. His proposed October return was postponed due to a COVID-19 diagnosis, and with Johnson out, he turns his attention to Geffrard (18-2, 12 KOs), a 31-year-old native of Miami, Florida.
Geffrard is a nine-year pro who has won 18 straight fights since starting his career 0-2. He upped his record to 18-2 last March, winning an eight-round unanimous decision over longtime contender Denis Grachev. Geffrard had a fight scheduled for Jan. 8 in Delray Beach, Florida, but the “South Florida Cinderella Man” jumped at the chance to fight Smith on eight days’ notice.

Bonavena Beaten by Ellis in 12
Associated Press | December 3, 1967
Jimmy Ellis knocked Oscar "Ringo" Bonavena down twice Saturday and went on to win a tight but unanimous decision over the pride of the Argentine in their 12-round semi-final bout in the World Boxing Association's championship elimination tournament.
Ellis, a one-time sparring partner for the deposed champion, Cassius Clay, floored Bonavena in the third and 10th rounds. Ellis' only mark was a cut over his left eye, suffered early in the eighth round.
In winning, Ellis, 27, is only one fight away from his goal—the heavyweight championship of the world. His next bout will be against the winner of the Jerry Quarry-Thad Spencer W.B.A semi-final on Feb. 3 in Oakland, Cal.
Ellis came in at 194¾ and the strong, awkward Bonavena, 206½, almost overpowered the Louisville boy with his strength and had Ellis in trouble later in the fight, which was telecast nationally.
Ellis started strong but seemed to slow down near the end. He was clinching and hanging on, but Bonavena was unable to capitalize on the advantage.
A combination of rights and lefts to the head, thrown by the champion of Argentina, opened the cut over Ellis' eye in the eighth round. But by the time the ninth had opened, the cut had stopped bleeding and Ellis, the son of a Baptist minister, seemed to have shaken off its effects.
Each fighter earned $75,000 for the afternoon's work and Ellis now stands to pick up $125,000 when he goes into the title fight. It was setup by the W.B.A. after it stripped Clay of the title for refusing to enter military services when he was drafted.
Referee Herman Dutreix of New Orleans scored it 59 to 53 for Ellis; Judge Sid Baer of Louisville had it 55 to 54 for Ellis; and Judge Hector Chaumon of Buenos Aires had Ellis in front 59 to 53.
