Raeese Aleem (USA) vs. Eduardo Baez (MEXICO) | Boxing Fight Highlights

Aleem secured victory against a determined Eduardo Baez, maintaining his undefeated record in the co-feature of Showtime’s tripleheader at Park MGM’s Dolby Live. Despite Baez's resilience, Aleem triumphed with a majority decision in their 10-round junior featherweight clash.

Judges Eric Cheek (98-92) and Patricia Morse Jarman (96-94) favored Aleem's relentless aggression, effective body work, and occasional head shots against a taller opponent who unexpectedly adopted a defensive strategy for most of the bout. Judge Max De Luca scored the contest as a draw, 95-95. Despite the challenge, Aleem (19-0, 12 KOs) maintains his position as the WBA's number one contender for the "super" champion, Murodjon Akhmadaliev.

Aleem's victory over Baez follows his impressive performance against Vic Pasillas, where he dropped Pasillas four times for an 11th-round stoppage on January 23 at Mohegan Sun Arena. This win also put an end to Baez's nine-fight winning streak. Baez (20-2-2, 7 KOs) suffered only his second professional loss.

While Aleem appeared fatigued in the final round, he showcased resilience, even going to the canvas in the closing minutes after a push by Baez. Despite this, Aleem managed to rock Baez with well-timed right hands in the later rounds, contributing to his victory by majority decision.
