Darius Fulghum

Bio

Darius Fulghum is an American super middleweight with a punching record that jumps off the page. Fifteen wins, thirteen of them inside the distance, one defeat and a draw, and he is a fighter who is always in the fight for as long as he has a puncher's chance.

He is 30, he has been quietly building his résumé, and he arrived at the latest fight of his career off a third-round knockout in May. That is the sort of form that makes a promoter pick up the phone.

Now he is reported to be facing unbeaten Diego Pacheco on November 14 on Matchroom's The Fight card, live on DAZN and TNT. It is the biggest opportunity of his career and he will have nothing to lose.

Let's not beat around the bush: Fulghum is a big underdog, but he is a puncher, and punchers always have a chance. If Pacheco switches off even for a moment, he could be in trouble.
