PhilBoxing.com





LIVE on ESPN+ TOMORROW at 5:30 p.m. ET/2:30 p.m. PT.
Pearl Concert Theater at Palms Casino Resort (Las Vegas)

The stage is set for a thrilling night of boxing tomorrow at the Pearl Concert Theater at Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, with all fighters successfully making weight today for the Top Rank-promoted event set to be broadcast live on ESPN+.

Headlining the card is a highly anticipated heavyweight showdown for three regional titles. Richard Torrez Jr. tipped the scales at 229.2 lbs and will face the challenge of Guido Vianello, who weighed in at a heavier 242.3 lbs. Their ten-round battle will see the NABF, NABO, and IBF North American Heavyweight titles on the line.  

The co-main event promises fireworks in the junior welterweight division. Lindolfo Delgado registered at 139.9 lbs for his clash against Elvis Rodriguez, who came in slightly lighter at 139.6 lbs. This ten-round affair is not only for Delgado's WBO Latino Title but also serves as a crucial WBC Junior Welterweight World Title Eliminator, raising the stakes significantly for both fighters.  

An intriguing lightweight contest will see Abdullah Mason (135 lbs) take on Carlos Ornelas (133.8 lbs) for the vacant NABF and NABO Lightweight titles. This ten-round bout is expected to showcase the skills of two hungry contenders vying for regional recognition.  

The featherweight division will be represented in an eight-round matchup between Albert Gonzalez, who weighed 124.8 lbs, and Dana Coolwell, who registered at 125.5 lbs.

In the junior bantamweight division, Steven Navarro (114.8 lbs) and Juan Garcia (113.5 lbs) will compete for the vacant Junior NABF Junior Bantamweight Title in an eight-round fight.  

The junior middleweight division will feature a six-round contest between Art Barrera Jr. (152.7 lbs) and Daijohn Gonzalez (152.9 lbs), with both fighters looking to make a statement in their weight class.

A ten-round middleweight bout is also on the card, pitting Jahi Tucker (160.7 lbs) against Troy Williamson (160.4 lbs) in what is expected to be a closely contested affair.

Junior lightweight action will see DJ Zamora (130.9 lbs) face Hugo Castañeda (130.6 lbs) in an eight-round fight.

Opening the televised portion of the event will be a four-round junior welterweight bout between Sammy Contreras Jr. (138.6 lbs) and Robert Jimenez (138.4 lbs).

Fight fans can tune in to ESPN+ tomorrow, April 5th, starting at 5:30 p.m. ET/2:30 p.m. PT to catch all the action live from Las Vegas. The successful weigh-ins have set the stage for what promises to be an exciting night of professional boxing.
