PhilBoxing.com




ROCHA VS. COBBS SET AS CO-MAIN EVENT TO ORTIZ, JR. VS. MCKINSON LIVE ON DAZN

HOLLYWOOD, CA (March 10, 2022) - Fan favorite, Blair “The Flair” Cobbs (15-0-1, 10 KOs) of Philadelphia hosted a media workout today at the world famous WildCard Boxing Club ahead of his fight against fellow stablemate Alexis Rocha (18-1 (12 KOs) on March 19. Their 10-round welterweight fight will be the co-main event to Vergil Ortiz, Jr. vs. Michael McKinson at the University of Southern California’s Galen Center in Downtown Los Angeles and will be streamed live, worldwide, on DAZN.

Below is what the fighter had to say about his upcoming fight:

"I can't wait for this fight. I love every single opportunity to get out there and show the world what Blair 'The Flair' is all about. Each moment, each day, I am getting better and better. Everyday I am refining my craft, inside and outside of the ring and people are going to see it come March 19.

"Once again, I have to fight against the odds. There are a lot of people that think, Alexis Rocha might win. Let's see what happens when he fights 'The Great One.' I expect that he is training very hard, but Blair 'The Flair' is training smart. It doesn't matter what he does. In that ring he is going to try everything and he is not going to be able to get anything done because I am much, much better.

"It's a big possibility that this fight may not go the distance. If he comes towards me and gets in my face I am going to shut him down.

"We are going to go in the ring with energy, and be the best that we possibly can which is always the most exciting, the biggest flair, the biggest attraction in boxing. Fans will have to tune in because the main event is the co-main event on March 19."
