Triller and Verzuz have apparently been working on something new for their fans. A new monthly event called TrillerVerz kicks off next month on August 3rd. This will be a new monthly event series combining boxing and music. The event will be also be a partnership with Madison Square Gardens and the fight will be live from the Hulu Theater. Triller acquired Verzuz back in March of this year and TrillerVerz will be one of the first big collaborative offerings since the acquisition.
The kick off TrillerVerz event in the series for the boxing portion will feature Michael Hunter vs Mike Wilson, and former champion Chris Algieri against a yet to be named opponent. The Verzuz portion will reportedly begin right after the boxing main event. The Verzuz match up reportedly will be produced by Swizz and Timbaland and feature a battle between rappers N.O.R.E. and Beanie Sigel. The two have been going back and forward recently on social media. Hopefully there is more news to come on this event, specifically from Swizz and Timbaland.
