Undefeated Prospects Castaneda and Venegas Jr. Clash for NABA Super Lightweight Title December 1st in San Antonio, TX

PhilBoxing.com



SAN ANTONIO, TX (October 30, 2018) ? TMB & PRB Entertainment and Roy Jones Jr. Boxing Promotions, present ?Whose ?0? Will Go 2?, a live boxing event taking place at the Scottish Rite Theatre in San Antonio, TX, on December 1, 2018. In the 10-round main event, undefeated super lightweights Kendo Castaneda (14-0, 7 KOs) and Gilbert Venegas Jr. (10-0, 6 KOs), will battle for the vacant WBA-NABA title. The entire card will be streamed via Facebook?s FIGHTNIGHT LIVE channel, which has already served more than three million fight fans since May 2017.

Venegas age 24, is coming off an impressive unanimous decision victory against Armando Cardenas (9-2, 5 KOs), a fight that took place at the Scottish Rite Theatre on September 8, 2018. With momentum on his side, Venegas is determined to remain unbeaten with a victory against Castaneda.

?Castaneda comes in with an undefeated record, so this will no doubt be my toughest opponent of my career, but a fight I believe I can win.? stated Gilbert Venegas Jr. ?I?ve worked very hard to get into this position, to fight for a title, so rest assure, I?m not going to let this opportunity pass me by. Being that this will be my first shot at a title, you better believe I?m coming to win, and win impressively. I?m going to be the new NABA super lightweight champion and on December 1st, my hands will be raised in victory.?

The 24-year old Castaneda, who is promoted by Roy Jones Jr. Boxing Promotions, recently defeated former WBC United States Champion, Jesus "Chuy" Gutierrez, by 8-round unanimous decision. With the victory, Castaneda, who resides in San Antonio, TX, will look to keep his undefeated record in tact against Venegas.

?I?m predicting a tremendous performance,? said Castaneda. ?I?m ready to razzle and dazzle, graze them and daze them, confuse and abuse them. Getting a NABA title shot on my second fight with Roy Jones Jr. Boxing represents a huge door being kicked down for me. If I can?t beat a guy like Venegas, I have no business in boxing.?

Tickets priced $35 General Admission $40 at the door, and $100 Ringside, are on sale now, and can be purchased by calling (210) 449-5599 or (210) 322-9974. The Scottish Rite Theatre is located at 308 Ave E, San Antonio, TX 78205. Doors open at 4:00 PM, first bell at 5:30 PM.
