PhilBoxing.com




SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO (March 19, 2025) – Boxlab Promotions’ undefeated super featherweight prospect, Carlos De Leon Castro (5-0, 3 KOs), is proving to be one of Puerto Rico’s brightest young boxing stars. This past Saturday at the Caribe Royal Resort, De Leon Castro delivered a dominant performance, securing a third-round TKO victory over Carl Rogers (3-2) in his 2025 debut, on a globally televised DAZN event promoted by Matchroom Boxing. The victory solidifies his rapid rise in the super featherweight division, reinforcing expectations that he is destined for greatness.

“I felt strong and focused going into the fight, and everything went according to plan,” said De Leon Castro reflecting on his latest victory. “My team and I prepared for this moment, and I executed perfectly. I knew I had the power and skill to break him down, and that’s exactly what happened. I’m grateful for every opportunity to showcase my talent on a big stage, and this is just the beginning.”

At just 19 years old, De Leon Castro is quickly becoming a household name in Puerto Rico, following in the footsteps of the island’s legendary boxing icons. With his undefeated record and dominant performances, many believe he has what it takes to be the next great Puerto Rican world champion.

“It’s an honor to represent my people every time I step into the ring,” De Leon Castro added. “Puerto Rico has a deep boxing tradition, and I want to make my island proud. I’m not just fighting for myself…I’m fighting for all my fans back home who believe in me. This victory is for them.”

Under the guidance of Boxlab Promotions, De Leon Castro has been placed in the perfect position to develop into an elite-level fighter. The young prospect expressed his appreciation for the team that has helped him achieve success in the early stages of his professional career.

“I couldn’t ask for a better team,” De Leon Castro concluded. “Boxlab Promotions has believed in me from day one, and they continue to put me in the right fights to help me grow. I trust them completely, and together, we are going to reach the top. I also want to thank my core team for all the sacrifices they made to get me here.”

“Everything is going exactly as planned for Carlos,” said Boxlab Promotions President Amaury Piedra. “His development has been exceptional, and he continues to impress every time he steps into the ring. He has the talent, the work ethic, and the mindset to become something special in this sport. We are proud of his progress and excited for what’s ahead.”

With another impressive win under his belt, Carlos De Leon Castro remains one of the most exciting prospects in the sport. As he continues his rise through the ranks, Puerto Rican boxing fans have every reason to believe they are witnessing the emergence of their next great champion.
