Solid supporting fights announced for Aston Palicte-Jose Martinez title eliminator PhilBoxing.com Fri, 25 Jan 2019  BOUTS WILL STREAM LIVE ON UFC FIGHT PASS? JAN. 31 FROM VIEJAS CASINO & RESORT IN ALPINE, CA LAS VEGAS (January 24, 2019) - Roy Jones Jr. Boxing Promotions has put together a solid card to support the World Boxing Organization (WBO) junior bantamweight world title eliminator between "Mighty" Aston Palicte (24-2-1, 20 KOs) and Jose "Chiquiro" Martinez (20-0-2, 13 KOs) on January 31 at Viejas Casino & Resort in Alpine, California. Promoted by RJJ Boxing Promotions in association with Miguel Cotto Promotions, Palicte vs. Martinez will headline a card that will stream live on UFC FIGHT PASS?, starting at 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT, in the inaugural event of a new agreement between Palicte's promoter, RJJ Boxing, and FIGHT PASS, to live stream up to 72 professional boxing events over the next three years. The event will be held on the Thursday night of Super Bowl week, in the Oak Ballroom at Viejas Casino & Resort, which is located 35 miles outside of San Diego. The winner of the Palicte vs. Martinez 12-round main event will become the mandatory challenger for new WBO junior bantamweight and four-division world champion, Donnie Nietes (42-1-5, 24 KO). WBO No. 2 rated Palicte is promoted by Roy Jones Jr. Boxing, WBO No. 4 ranked Martinez by Miguel Cotto Promotions. Last September, Palicte (WBO No. 2) fought a 12-round split draw with his fellow Filipino, Nietes, for the then vacant WBO Junior bantamweight championship. The co-featured event is a rare six-round match-up of two undefeated prospects, Texas featherweight Edward "Kid" Vasquez (5-0) and San Diego's Brandon "2 Smooth" Cruz (6-0, 4 KOs). Styles make fights and consummate boxer Vasquez vs. slugger Cruz has all the ingredients for a highly entertaining, competitive fight. The FIGHT PASS opener pits local favorite Dilan "El Rey" Miranda (4-1, 3 KOs) versus Daniel Constantino (2-2-1, 1 KO), who is straight out of Compton (CA), in a scheduled six-round, junior featherweight bout.
