Undefeated Bantamweight Reina Tellez to Face Veteran Maria Salinas on Most Valuable Prospects 13

PhilBoxing.com





ORLANDO, FL (June 2, 2025) — Rising bantamweight prospect and Boxlabs’ Reina Tellez (11-0-1, 5 KOs) of San Antonio, Texas, returns to the ring in the biggest test of her career as she takes on seasoned Mexican veteran Maria Salinas (27-11-6, 7 KOs) of Coahuila de Zaragoza, Mexico. The eight-round bout is scheduled to take place on Saturday, June 7th at the Caribe Royale Resort in Orlando, Florida, as part of the Most Valuable Prospects 13 fight card, and will be broadcast live on DAZN.

Tellez, known for her explosive combinations and ring composure, faces a durable and experienced opponent in Salinas, who has shared the ring with world champions and title contenders throughout her career.

"Salinas is a veteran and she’s crafty,” said Tellez. “She’s been in there with the best, but I’m here to prove I belong at the top. I’m not underestimating her—but I’m not backing down either."

Reina has been working hard in training camp noting, "Camp has been intense and focused. We’ve been sparring with high-level partners to replicate Salinas’ experience and style. I’m in peak shape physically and mentally."

A win would according to Tellez’s put her on the radar of the division’s elite. “My record shows that I’m not just undefeated—I’m ready for world-level opponents."

To fans watching Tellez says you can expect, "Controlled pressure, smart angles, and power shots. I’m looking to put on a complete performance—something that makes people stop and say, ‘She’s next.’"

"Reina Tellez continues to prove she’s one of the top young fighters in the bantamweight division,” said Amaury Piedra, President of Boxlab Promotions. “Taking on someone as tough and experienced as Maria Salinas is a major step, and we believe Reina is more than ready. This is the kind of fight that turns contenders into word champions—and Reina has all the tools to do just that on June 7th."
