"I’m feeling sharp, strong, and more dangerous than ever." Ronny Alvarez

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (October 10, 2025) – Fast-rising Cuban super middleweight Ronny Alvarez (4-0, 3 KOs), originally from Ciego de Ávila, Cuba and now training out of Providence, Rhode Island, is set to return to the ring on October 18, 2025, in a compelling 6-round showdown against hard-hitting veteran Bruno Pola (10-3-1, 9 KOs). The bout will take place at the South Padre Island Convention Center in South Padre Island, Texas, and will be televised live on DAZN as part of Most Valuable Promotions’ “Most Valuable Prospects 16” card.

Alvarez, who had an extensive amateur career where he captured Gold at the AIBA and Pan American Games, is known for his crisp technique, explosive combinations, and ring IQ. He is coming off a dominant performance and looks to keep his unbeaten streak alive in what promises to be the toughest test of his young professional career.

Here is what Alvarez, who is co-promoted with Boxlab Promotions, Warriors Boxing, and Dreambigg Promotions, had to say about his recent training camp, his matchup with Pola, fighting on the national stage, and more.

On his recent training camp:
"This camp has been the most focused I’ve ever been. I have to give a lot of credit to my trainers, David Keefe and Mike Veloz, for pushing me every day. We’ve worked on everything—footwork, defense, pressure, timing. I’m feeling sharp, strong, and more dangerous than ever."

On his matchup with Pola:
"Bruno Pola is no one to take lightly because he has tremendous punching power. He’s experienced and comes to fight. He’s the type of opponent I want, because I know he’s going to text me. I’m ready to show I belong at this level and prove I can handle anything he brings in the ring."

On fighting on the global stage on DAZN:
"This is a huge opportunity for me. To fight on DAZN, where fans from all over the world can watch, motivates me to deliver a statement performance. It’s a dream come true, but I’m just getting started. I’m going to bring excitement to everyone watching."

On what a win will do for his career:
"A win here takes me to the next tier. It opens doors to bigger fights, better rankings, and more exposure. I’m here to rise to the top of the division."

Amaury Piedra, President of Boxlab Promotions, who co-promotes Alvarez, is confident this bout marks the beginning of something special. "Ronny Alvarez is one of the most exciting young fighters in the super middleweight division. His talent, discipline, and hunger to succeed set him apart. We believe he has all the tools to become a world champion, and this fight on the MVP stage is a key moment in his rise. We’re thrilled to see how far he’ll go."
