LONG BEACH, CA (June 24, 2024) – This past Saturday, June 22, 2024, on CBN Promotions' "New Blood" card, Tayden Beltran (9-0, 4 KOs), from Huntington Beach, CA, defeated Cesar Villarraga (10-10-1, 5 KOs) from Los Angeles, CA, in the 8-round lightweight main event. The event took place at Thunder Studios in Long Beach, California and was shown live on FOX Deportes, Fubo Sports, Stadium TV, Gray Television and be available on tape delay on Estrella TV.

From the opening bell, every round was close. Tayden had his moments in the early rounds, while Villarraga was closing in during the middle rounds. Villarraga landed a powerful overhand right in round five that rocked Beltran, but he recovered nicely and finished the round strong. In the later rounds Beltran took control and closed out the fight, landing more power punches. Scorecards read 78-74 twice, and 77-75 for Beltran, giving him the unanimous decision.

“I got the win against a very crafty veteran who has a lot of experience,” said Beltran. “I still have a lot to learn, and this was a great learning experience. It was a blessing to be fighting in my first main event, and I’ll be ready when my name is called for my next fight. I’m hoping to fight three more times by the end of the year.”

In the 6-round super featherweight co-main event, Eric Mondragon (10-1-1, 4 KOs) defeated Kevin Piedrahita (9-2, 8 KOs) by majority decision.

Scorecards read 58-56 (Piedrahita), 60-54 (Mondragon), and 57-57.

“I never had any doubt that I was going to come out victorious in this fight,” said Mondragon. “I thought I won every round and I know I hurt him a couple of times. This was a very tough fight, but I did what I had to do to win. I know with a few more wins I’ll be ready to fight for some type of title, hopefully by the end of the year.”
