About this photo
The image focuses on two boxers facing each other intensely. They are in a boxing ring with a blurred background of stadium lights. The mood is serious and anticipatory, typical of a fight promotion. A notable detail is the intense stare between the two fighters. ON-SCREEN TEXT: BOXINGSCENE BEN AVIDEZ VS MIKAELIAN EXPECTED TO BE SIGNED THIS WEEK BOXINGSCENE.COM
