SAN ANTONIO, TX (November 14, 2024) – Triple A Promotions, in association with South Park Boxing Academy, are set to bring San Antonio another great night of boxing for the community as “The Showdown at the Shrine” will return to the Alzafar Shrine Auditorium in San Antonio, Texas, on Saturday, November 23, 2024. The eagerly awaited event will be broadcast live on KSAT.com and KSAT+, giving fans the opportunity to enjoy the excitement from home.

Tickets priced $35 (General Admission), $65-$75-$85 (Table Seating / $850-10seats / $750-10seats / $650-10seats) are on sale now and can be purchased by calling (210) 605-8933. Doors open at 6:00 pm, and the first bout is scheduled to start at 7:00 pm.

The main event will showcase a thrilling 6-round light flyweight showdown between San Antonio’s next rising star, unbeaten 19-year-old David Cardenas (8-0, 6 KOs), who battles Robert Ledesma (3-13-1, 2 KOs), also from San Antonio, TX. Cardenas brings a fan friendly style to the ring and is rapidly making a name for himself in the boxing world.

"It’s an honor to fight in front of my hometown fans here in San Antonio once again,” said Cardenas, who is gaining popularity with local fans as his relationship with San Antonio Spurs power forward Keldon Johnson, is known around town. “I’m ready to give everyone a show they won’t forget. As always, fans can expect me to go for the knockout. I’m here to bring exciting fights to everyone in attendance and those watching on KSAT.”

In the 4-round co-main event, two rising stars in the lightweight division will go toe-to-toe as Aseel Martinez (2-0, 1 KO), from San Antonio, TX, will battle Jose Jimenez, also from San Antonio, TX, who will be making his pro debut. Martinez vs. Jimenez promises to be a war as both fighters bring exciting fighting styles to the ring.

“Tickets are still available for this event, but we are expecting another sold out show, so fans please get your tickets now before they are gone,” said promoter Rick Nunez. “This event promises to be another unforgettable night of boxing. Fans in the arena and those tuning in on KSAT can look forward to seeing some incredible knockouts. I’m truly grateful to the boxing community in San Antonio and the surrounding areas for supporting this even. The card is stacked with talented prospects ready to make their mark. Boxing in San Antonio is on the rise, and I’m committed to building on that excitement.”

In addition, singing the National Anthem will be celebrated Country and Tejano

artist Laura Linda, who was awarded the All Star Music Awards’ Best Female Entertainer of the Year in 2023, a testament to her dynamic presence in the music scene. That same year, her influence extended beyond music as San Antonio Monthly Magazine honored her as the 2023 Socialite of the Year.
