PhilBoxing.com


NEW YORK (May 3, 2019) --Undefeated welterweight Janelson Figueroa Bocachica returns to action tonight when he takes on Gabor Gorbics in a scheduled eight-round bout at the Sands Bethlehem Event Center.

The 20 year-old Bocachica will be making his 2nd start of 2019, as he is coming off a 1st round stoppage over Victor Abreu on January 19th in his native Puerto Rico.

Bocachica (13-0, 9 KOs) now resides in resides in Detroit, and is now being looked upon on many of the top prospect lists. He feels that he will be able to live up to that status.

"It's great to see my name on those lists. I am feel that I am one of best prospects out there, and on Friday night, I will show again that I am worthy of that, and a future champion."

In Gorbics, he is facing his most experienced foe, as the Hungarian resident has a record of 26-16 with 16 knockouts. Gorbics has been in the ring with fighters like Liam Williams, Daniyar Yeleussinov and Spike O'Sullivan, and Bocachica feels he will do better than those experienced fighters.

"I want to be able to win in an more impressive fashion then they did. I feel that will be making statement."

Bocachica weighed in at 147.6 lbs while Gorbics was 148.4 at Thursday's weigh-in.

Bocachica is managed by Split-T Management and is co-promoted by King's Promotions and Fists of Legends.
