The bout was confirmed during Sunday’s Zuffa Boxing 05 prelims, which featured Andres Cortes vs. Eridson Garcia in the headline slot on the same platform.
Mosley (22-5, 12 KOs) will be making his promotional debut with Zuffa Boxing. He last fought on Dec. 6, dropping a unanimous decision to Jesus Ramos in a 12-round middleweight fight.
Prior to that loss, Mosley had won five consecutive bouts, including a decision victory over former middleweight titleholder Daniel Jacobs in July 2024. He is the son of Hall of Famer Shane Mosley.
Bohachuk (27-3, 24 KOs) returns for his second appearance under the Zuffa banner. He most recently edged Radzhab Butaev by split decision on Feb. 1 in a competitive 10-round fight.
In the stretch before that, Bohachuk went 2-2 over four outings, including a narrow majority decision loss to Vergil Ortiz in 2024 and a defeat to Brandon Adams in their 2025 rematch.
It feels like a crossroads fight where the loser likely falls out of the title picture for good. Bohachuk is a volume machine, but he has looked human lately. That 12-round war with Vergil Ortiz in 2024 took a massive physical toll, and his performances since then have lacked that same relentless spark.
Even in the split decision over Butaev, he wasn’t the same “steamroller” we saw a couple of years ago. Bohachuk has looked slow and sluggish.
Bohachuk’s power is his equalizer. Even when he is technically off, he can still hit hard, and that wears opponents down.
Shane Jr. has surprisingly good fundamentals and a high ring IQ, but at 35, the clock is ticking. His lack of activity is a major problem against a guy like Bohachuk, who forces you to work every second of every round.
Mosley’s loss to Jesus Ramos Jr. showed that while he is durable, he can be outworked by younger, more explosive talent.
If Mosley Jr. can use his reach and keep this at a distance, he can win rounds. But if Bohachuk forces him into a phone booth fight, the 35-year-old might find the pace suffocating.
The undercard will include Julian Rodriguez vs. James Perella, along with Misael Rodriguez facing Andreas Katzourakis.
