San Francisco Boxing Leaders Bring It Back: FIGHT NIGHT AT ROCCAPULCO

PhilBoxing.com




SAN FRANCISCO, CA (February 25, 2026) — San Francisco’s premier boxing promoter Coach Art, alongside a major force in Northern California amateur boxing, Coach Robert Fernandez of 415 Boxing, are bringing it back. On Friday, February 27, 2026, 415 Boxing and Frisco Boxing present “Fight Night at Roccapulco”, a USA Boxing sanctioned amateur boxing event in the heart of the Mission District. This event represents the continuation of more than two decades of active involvement in San Francisco’s boxing community, not a new venture, but a proven tradition.

A Proven Boxing Track Record
Coach Art has contributed to the promotion and grassroots marketing of major nationally televised boxing events, that include, Peter Howes Promotions at Pier 32 broadcast on FOX, Boxing at USF televised on ESPN2, and HBO Boxing at the San Francisco Civic Center headlined by Floyd Mayweather, with Manny Pacquiao featured on the undercard to name a few. Street promotional efforts for Goossen Tutor Promotions during the Showtime Boxing Super Six World Boxing Classic, the historic tournament in which Andre Ward captured his first world championship title. These landmark events helped position San Francisco as a respected presence in the national and international boxing landscape.

In addition, Frisco Boxing’s Fight Night series at Roccapulco has been running since 2003, consistently showcasing amateur talent, drawing local crowds, and providing structured opportunities for developing fighters across the Bay Area. Together, Coach Art and Coach Robert Fernandez bring decades of combined experience in amateur boxing development, event promotion, youth mentorship, and community leadership.

The evening will feature competitive USA Boxing sanctioned amateur bouts showcasing rising Northern California talent. Live musical entertainment will include BLISS (The Bay Wolf) and special guest DJ J Pro, blending sport, culture, and authentic San Francisco energy. Tickets are available now at Eventbrite.com Search: “Fight Night at Roccapulco” / San Francisco, CA.

Honoring Boxing Legacy
The event proudly pays tribute to the Northern California Veteran Boxers Association and the individuals who dedicated much of their lives to strengthening the Bay Area boxing community, including:

Al Citrino – Vic Grupico – Johnny “Carnation” Vidal – Sonny Marson – Joe Burke – Don Stewart – Jerry Maxwell – Jimmy Ford – Robert Fernandez – Frank Maldonado – Eddie Croft

This tribute underscores the mission behind Fight Night: honoring the past while building the next generation.

Community Impact

Fight Night at Roccapulco represents:

• Safe, regulated athletic competition
• Youth opportunity and structured mentorship
• Positive economic activity in the Mission District
• Preservation of San Francisco boxing heritage
• Collaboration between respected local leaders

For over 20 years, Coach Art and Coach Robert Fernandez have remained committed to creating legitimate, sanctioned platforms for amateur fighters while strengthening the cultural and athletic fabric of the city. San Francisco has a rich boxing history. Fight Night at Roccapulco continues that legacy.
