Dec 01, 2012 05:04 PM EST

With the Junior Middleweight title on the line, Austin Trout will face Miguel Cotto a little after 11 p.m. ET.

It is Cotto's first fight since May 5 when he went toe-to-toe with maybe the greatest boxer of this generation, Floyd Mayweather Jr.

He lost to Mayweather and lost his title as well after a unanimous decision that did not go his way.

At 32-years-old Cotto's professional record is 37-3 with 30 knockouts.

He has a five-year advantage over Trout who is 27-years-old.

Trout is the bigger boxer, the younger boxer and is undefeated after posting a 25-0 record with 14 knockouts.

TV Coverage: The action will be on Showtime.

Schedule: Cotto vs. Trout will be the main event.

The undercard matches will feature: Jayson Velez (19-0, 14 KOs) vs. Salvador Sanchez II (30-4-3, 18 KOs) middleweight Daniel Jacobs (23-1, 20 KOs) vs. Chris Fitzpatrick (15-2, 6 KOs).

This will be a great triple-header as Puerto Rico will feature boxers in two of these three matches.

Velez is a Puerto Rican featherweight prospect. His opponent has boxing in his blood as Sanchez II is the nephew of the Hall of Famer Salvador Sanchez.

Jacobs hails from Brooklyn, N.Y. and almost died from cancer after being the 2009 ESPN.com prospect of the year.
