Light heavyweight contender Artur Beterbiev, who was idle from June 2015 until this past June because of a right shoulder injury and subsequent surgery, is set for the second bout of his comeback.Beterbiev, a native of Russia who fights out of his adopted hometown of Montreal, will face Paraguays Isidro Ranoni Prieto in a scheduled 12-round bout on Dec. 23 at the Casino du Lac Leamy in Gatineau, Quebec, promoter Yvon Michel announced Thursday.Despite the claims of some promoters and light heavyweight challengers, its a fact that Artur Beterbiev is the most dangerous and biggest threat to all of the world light heavyweight champions, Michel said. All contenders for titles change their minds when it comes to getting in the same ring with him. Isidro Prieto is a fierce fighter who accepted the challenge, also believing he has the style to repel even the most courageous boxer. He is determined to make a name for himself Dec. 23rd. We certainly admire his determination.Beterbiev (10-0, 10 KOs), 31, a two-time Russian Olympian, made his return seven months after the surgery, knocking out Argentinas Ezequiel Maderna in the fourth round on June 4.Prieto (26-1-3, 22 KOs), 30, has won two fights in a row. In his only loss, he dropped a unanimous decision to Eleider Alvarez, a Beterbiev promotional stablemate, in August 2015 in Montreal.Prieto is by far the best fighter available to fight Artur, trainer Marc Ramsay said. He is very aggressive, and his style ensures a fight filled with action.Said Beterbiev: Im really happy with the turn of events. During his time in Montreal, Prieto has shown that he is a true warrior, and thats the kind of opponent I want to face.Before Beterbiev injured his shoulder, he was supposed to fight in a world title elimination bout with a shot at unified titlist Sergey Kovalev at stake. He defeated Kovalev in the amateur ranks. With the injury behind him, Beterbiev is likely to land an eliminator if he beats Prieto.He has all the qualities required to become world champion, said Andre Kulesza, Beterbievs strength and conditioning coach. He is healthy and always positive. He is highest level of athlete I have ever had the chance to work with in Montreal. Artur is naturally strong, agile and flexible. He will go up very quickly and destroy his rivals. Expect lots of KOs.Beterbiev was put on the fast track by Michel as soon as he turned pro. He has already scored notable knockout wins against former world titleholders Tavoris Cloud and Gabriel Campillo.Michel also announced that the kickoff of the new season of boxing cards at the Casino de Montreal will begin Oct. 20. The show will be headlined by a 10-round welterweight bout between 2012 Canadian Olympian Custio Clayton (9-0, 7 KOs) and Mexicos Ramses Agaton (17-4-3, 9 KOs).I work hard every week, and I always feel better when I work out, Clayton said. I had a solid training camp in Montreal and a few days in Ottawa with my trainer. Ill be ready. Torry Holt Rams Jersey . The catch: It needs a lot of money, and it needs it fast.

NEW YORK -- The last time Julio Urias pitched in New York, his parents were in the stands across town for his anticipated major league debut.It did not last long when he pitched 2 2/3 innings at Citi Field against the New York Mets, but since then Urias has shown signs of why he is so highly regarded and poise while pitching in a pennant race.I think right now where Julio is at, the confidence that he is it really doesnt matter where hes pitching, who hes pitching against, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. Hes really just understanding that he can consistently get major league hitters out. I think if you look at our roster at any person whos grown as much, or the most I think that its probably Julio.Urias will be on the mound Tuesday night when the Los Angeles Dodgers continue their three-game series against the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium in a game with significant implications for both teams.Urias is 5-2 with a 3.69 ERA in 15 appearances (13 starts). On Aug. 3, he allowed three runs in a relief appearance during a 12-2 loss at Colorado but since then the left-hander is 4-0 with a 1.44 ERA (four earned runs/25 innings) with 25 strikeouts and eight walks in his last five appearances (four starts).Certainly with Julio, it doesnt seem like were running a rookie pitcher out there, Roberts said.Urias will be starting for the first time in over a week. On Sept. 2 against the San Diego Padres, he injured a finger on his pitching hand fielding a bunt attempt and was taken out after allowing two runs and three hits in 5 1/3 innings during a 4-2 loss to San Diego.Julio did everything we asked of him, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. Again, limited damage and competed out there. For me, (after) 90 pitches it was time to get him out of there. Losing command. But thats one that you figure Julio pitched well enough to win.At the time, it was thought Urias might havve made his last start due to innings limitations.dddddddddddd Urias has pitched 68 1/3 innings with the Dodgers this season and including his total with Triple-A Oklahoma City, he has accumulated 113 1/3 innings.His highest total in the previous three years had been 87 2/3 innings in 25 appearances in 2014 with Class A Rancho Cucamonga but Roberts said last week Urias would get the start against the Yankees.The Dodgers opened the series with Mondays 8-2 win, when fellow rookie Jose De Leon allowed two runs and three hits in five innings. Justin Turner and Yasiel Puig hit late home runs Los Angeles won for the seventh time in nine games.The Yankees have lost two straight after a season-high seven game winning streak. They are five behind Boston in the AL East and two games out in the wild-card race.New York will be looking to play better defensively after allowing four unearned runs. Right fielder Aaron Judge committed a three-base error when he misplayed a fly ball by Chase Utley and catcher Gary Sanchez committed a throwing error.Right when I said it, I tried to pick up where Jacoby (Ellsbury) was, and hes fast, man, Judge said. So he got there quick. But once he got there, I called it, and just didnt make the play.The Yankees will be looking to play better defense behind CC Sabathia, their most experienced starting pitcher.Sabathia is 8-12 with a 4.27 ERA and although he has allowed three runs or less in six of his last seven starts, he also is 3-8 with a 5.79 ERA in his last 15 starts since June 22. Before June 22, he had been 4-2 with a 0.82 ERA in his previous seven.Sabathia has allowed 20 home runs and 18 of those have occurred since June 22. On Thursday, he allowed three in four-plus innings of a no-decision against Tampa Bay. ' ' '
