PhilBoxing.com





On Friday, July 18 at Pechanga Resort Casino & Live On Millions.co PPV

July 9, 2025 – Temecula, CA – On Friday, July 18, 2025, Christy Martin Promotions and Patrick Ortiz’s Ringside Ticket Inc. will proudly present “Lopez vs. Vargas,” a night of world-class professional boxing from Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, California, and broadcast live on Millions.co PPV.

In the intriguing 10-round welterweight main event, Corona, California’s Louie Lopez (16-2-3, 5 KOs) will face undefeated Adrian Vargas (15-0-1, 10 KOs) from National City, California. And in the 10-round super welterweight co-feature, Emeka Nwokolo (15-1, 13 KOs) of Los Angeles via Benin City, Nigeria will take on Jireh De Los Santos (15-2-2, 5 KOs) of Weslaco, Texas.

Tickets for “Lopez vs. Vargas”, starting at $56, are available from Ticketmaster or at the Pechanga Resort Casino Box Office (888) 810-8871.

28-year-old Louie Lopez is a seven-year professional, who has never fought outside his native state. Known as “The Fighting Pride of Corona California,” Lopez is an all-action fighter who always produces a thrilling performance. Known for taking the hard fights that other prospects avoid, Lopez defeated formidable contender Alan Sanchez (then 23-5-1) via upset eight-round unanimous decision in July 2024. He was last seen fighting to an impressive 10-round majority draw against the well-respected Jesus Saracho (then 14-2-1) on a ProBox TV event in March of this year.

35-year-old Adrian Vargas is a 14-year professional, who recently returned to boxing after nearly a 10-year period of inactivity. Since returning to the sport, Vargas has scored two consecutive knockouts. He was last seen impressively stopping Sachin Rohila (then 8-1) in one round at the Four Points Sheraton Hotel in San Diego. In his life away from boxing, Vargas works as a carpenter for Union Carpenters Local 619. He also runs the Restoring San Diego program, which is “devoted to making a positive lasting impact in our communities, especially for at-risk youth.”

On the stacked undercard, fan favorite Paolo “Pow” Barredo (3-0, 2 KOs) of Walnut, California, will face Luis Valdes Pena (8-20-1, 2 KOs) of Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, in a four-round super featherweight battle.

Also scheduled is a six-round super welterweight bout between Devin Parrish (5-0, 5 KOs) of Chicago and Oscar Trujillo Enriquez (2-0-1, 1 KO) Riverside, California via Jerez, Zacatecas, Mexico; Michael Meyers (7-2, 3 KOs) of Murrieta, California, will face Josias Gonzalez (2-5-1) of Whittier, California in a six-round welterweight battle; and in a six-round lightweight fight, William King (5-2-2, 2 KOs) of Perris, California, will face Markus Bowes (3-8, 2 KOs) of Roxboro, North Carolina.

Opening up the action, Andres Martinez (5-4, 3 KOs) of Equatorial Guinea, will take on Jonathan Espino (2-5, 2 KOs) of San Marcos, California, in a four-round light heavyweight scrap.

“My whole team at Christy Martin Promotions is looking forward to this loaded card and the opportunity to bring exciting fights to the fans at Pechanga Resort Casino and our online viewers,” said Christy Martin. “Thank you to Patrick Ortiz of Ringside Ticket, Inc., for partnering with me on this show. The main and co-featured bouts are both ‘can’t miss’ battles that will thrill the fans live and on Millions PPV. Plus, we have an undercard of competitive bouts between local and international prospects. Don’t miss this great event being held in one of the staple venues of Southern California boxing.”

All bouts are subject to change. The Pechanga Resort Casino is located at 45000 Pechanga Parkway in Temecula, CA. For more information, visit pechanga.com or call 877-711-2946.
