MORALES TO BATTLE GESTA ON THE NOV. 14 MAIN EVENT OF THURSDAY NIGHT FIGHTS AT THE BELASCO THEATER IN LOS ANGELES

LOS ANGELES (Oct. 22, 2019): Carlos "The Solution" Morales (19-4-3, 8 KOs) and Mercito "No Mercy" Gesta (32-3-2, 17 KOs) discuss their upcoming 10-round lightweight battle on the Oct. 24 edition of Ring Report, which will air after Thursday Night Fights. The seven-minute segment will set the stage for their upcoming fight on Nov. 14 at the Belasco Theater in Los Angeles. All the action, both in and out of the ring, will be streamed live on RingTV.com and on Facebook Watch via the Golden Boy Fight Night Page beginning at 10:00 p.m. ET/7:00 p.m. PT. The series will also be available on regional sports networks around the nation.

In this candid interview, both fighters discuss the major changes they've made to their camps as they prepare for one of the most challenging and exciting bouts of their careers.

"I'm going to show my hunger in this fight," said Carlos Morales. "If I don't win this fight, my career will go in the toilet. I'm 29 years old, and I need to fight for a world title next. That's why I need Mercito Gesta on my resume."



"For me, it's not about winning or losing," said Mercito Gesta. "I'm here because of the love I have for the sport. A loss wouldn't hurt me, but at the same time I'm confident I'm going to win. I'm the natural 135-pounder, and I'm the stronger one."

Additional context and commentary will be shared in the Ring Report episode, airing this Thursday.
