Zamora III, who is of African American and Filipino decent, was a multiple national and international champion as an amateur and plans to carry that success as he marches on in the professional ranks.
“I’m only 18-years old, so I have a long road ahead of me, but I’m looking to get on the fast track,” continued, Zamora III who is managed by Bob Santos. “I have a great team around me, and I know my time will come where I’ll be able to display my talent in a big fight. I’m setting goals to become the next great Filipino champion and follow in the footsteps of my favorite fighter Manny Pacquiao.”
“This is a great opportunity for DJ to get his feet wet on a PBC card.” Bob Santos said. “He’s been sparring very well against guys like Ryan Garcia, Robert Guerrero and Omar Juarez to name a few, and I know he has the talent to become something special.
