ORLANDO, FL (November 1, 2024) – Tonight at the Caribe Royale Resort in Orlando, FL, Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz (18-2-1, 8 KOs), from Worcester, Massachusetts, claimed the WBA Continental USA Jr. Welterweight title with an impressive fourth round TKO victory over Christian Rubio Mino (24-10-2, 17 KOs) of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Ortiz showcased his skill and precision at every turn, ultimately securing the title and further solidifying his presence in the Jr. Welterweight division. The 10-round main event was broadcast live worldwide on DAZN.

From the opening bell, Ortiz, who is co-promoted by Boxlab Promotions and CES Boxing, showed a different look then usual as he was the stalker in this fight, walking down Mino for the entire four rounds. Ortiz dropped Mino four times before the referee stopped the bout at the 2:00 minute mark of round four.

"This victory is a huge step forward for me,” stated Ortiz. “Securing the WBA Continental USA title shows that all my hard work and commitment are paying off. It’s a great feeling to add this belt to my journey, and I’m just getting started. I’m ready to face all the champions in the division. Jose "Rayo" Valenzuela is at the top of my hit list, but I want everyone. My goal is to keep climbing and prove that I belong with the best at 140 pounds. I want to make my mark on this division and move one step closer to a world title.”

In the 8-round co-main event, 18-year-old Kaipo Gallegos (7-0-1, 6 KOs), a southpaw from Las Vegas, NV, was victorious, in an all action war, defeating Iron Alvarez (15-3, 11 KOs) for the WBA USA Continental Youth title. From the opening round, Gallegos was successful with his combinations punching. Iron showed a lot of resilience standing his ground while landing some powerful right hands. Gallegos kept the pressure on and ended the fight with a flurry of punches to the head, forcing the referee to stop the bout at the 2:38 mark of round seven.

"Alvarez was as tough as they come, and he pushed me every round,” said Gallegos. “It was a battle from start to finish, and I knew I had to dig deep to come out on top. Winning the WBA Youth super featherweight title against a fighter like him is a huge accomplishment, and I’m grateful for all the hard work my team and I put in to make this moment happen. Now that I have this title, I’m ready for bigger challenges. I want to keep climbing the ranks and face the best in the division. My goal is to keep proving myself, and I’m ready to take on anyone standing between me and a world title shot."
