Atlantic City, NJ (July 9, 2022)--Tonight at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, featherweight Edward Vazquez will take on Jose Argel in the main event at The 2300 Arena.
Vazquez of Fort Worth, Texas has a record of 11-1 with three knockouts. The 26 year-old featherweight is a six-year professional who won his first 11 fights.
Those 11 wins were highlighted with victories over Brandon Arvie (11-0), Brandon Cruz (6-0), Adan Ochoa (11-1) and Irvin Gonzalez (14-2). In his last bout, Vazquez was on the wrong end of a very controversial decision as Raymond Ford was awarded a split-decision on February 5th in Phoenix, Arizona.
Most ringside observers, including the DAZN announce crew and a worldwide audience that watched the fight thought that Vazquez deserved to be the winner.
Argel of Carolina, Puerto Rico by way of Santiago, Chile, has a record of 8-3 with two knockouts. The 27 year-old Argel was a former amateur standout in Chile, and won his first eight-bouts. He has taken on three consecutive undefeated opponents. His last fight he lost to decorated prospect Haven Brady Jr. on March 26th in Las Vegas.
At Friday's weigh-in, Vazquez was 128.8 lbs. Argel was 127.2
The fight can be seen live on BXNGTV.com at 7 PM ET.
DKO Boxing Management is composed of Jim Kurtz and David Dubinsky.
Vazquez is promoted by KO Night Promotions.
