Floyd Schofield vs. Joseph Diaz Jr. Set as Co-Main for Golden Boy’s November 8 Card

Golden Boy Promotions is stacking its November 8 event at Dickies Arena with another Texas-sized clash. Undefeated lightweight contender Floyd Schofield (19-0, 13 KOs) will face seasoned former world champion Joseph “JoJo” Diaz Jr. (34-8-1, 15 KOs) in the co-main event, live on DAZN.

At just 24 years old, Schofield has built a reputation as one of boxing’s most explosive young talents. The Mexican-American knockout artist now faces his toughest test yet in Diaz — a veteran southpaw looking to reignite his career after tough battles with elite names like William Zepeda.

The matchup serves as the co-feature to Vergil Ortiz Jr. vs. Erickson Lubin, underscoring Golden Boy’s continued push to spotlight rising stars in front of passionate Texas fight fans. With youth versus experience at stake, this bout could redefine both men’s career paths heading into 2026.
