Featherweight gunslinger
Charles Huerta (11-0, 7 KO's) has kept a busy schedule in
2009 thus far, adding three big wins to his resume since the start of
the year. Now unbeaten in 11 pro bouts, the
22-year-old from Paramount, California kicked off the "Fight
Night Club" series last month with a thrilling third round knockout
of previously unbeaten Noe Lopez Jr. in what was voted the fight of the
night. By popular demand, he's back for the July 30th
event in a six round fight against an opponent to be determined.
Also dazzling fans at
Club Nokia on June 11th was the exciting Luis Ramos
(11-0, 6 KO's) who stepped up against Baudel Cardenas and proceeded to
knock the 36-fight veteran out in the fifth round. The
win was the Santa Ana, California native's biggest to date, but he plans
on topping it when he steps through the ropes on July 30th
when he guns for another knockout win against an opponent to be
determined in a six round bout.
One of the most decorated amateurs to hit the boxing
scene in recent years, National Golden Gloves and two-time U.S. Amateur
Champion Ronnie Rios (5-0, 2 KO's) is well on his way to
duplicating that success as a professional. Just
19-years old, the Santa Ana, California featherweight is coming off a 2nd
round knockout of 20-fight veteran Alvaro Muro in May.
He'll see action in a four round fight on July 30th.
Also a former National Amateur Champion,
Carlos Molina has begun his assault on the professional ranks in
impressive fashion, compiling a perfect (7-0, 3 KO's) record.
Known for his blazing speed and pinpoint accuracy,
the native of Commerce, California virtually guarantees excitement when
he enters the ring for a scheduled four rounder on July 30th.
"Fight Night Club,"
is Golden Boy Promotions' critically acclaimed new boxing series, that
will present boxing in a night club atmosphere, with a DJ, music, great
food and a VIP room, as well as a unique setup where the ring is on Club
Nokia's stage with standing room area for fans in front of the ring, as
well as reserved seating in the balcony. After the boxing action ends,
fans will have a chance to hear great music played by LA's hottest DJ's,
dance and mingle with the fighters as the venue will convert back into a
night club.
Opponents for Huerta, Ramos, Rios and Molina, as well
as the remaining bouts, will be announced soon. For
