TICKETS ON SALE NOW!

ANAHEIM, Calif. (March 2, 2026) — Golden Boy has assembled a stacked undercard featuring many of its top rising stars for its March 14 event, headlined by former interim champion Arnold Barboza Jr. (32-1, 11 KOs) of South El Monte, Calif., as he takes on Chicago’s Kenneth “Bossman” Sims Jr. (22-2-1, 8 KOs) in a 12-round welterweight showdown, streaming live worldwide exclusively on DAZN. The main event takes place Saturday, March 14, at Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif.

Tickets for Barboza Jr. vs. Sims Jr. are on sale now and are priced at $100, $75, $50 and $25, plus applicable fees. A limited number of Golden Boy VIP Experience packages will also be available, featuring exclusive merchandise and premium fight-night upgrades. Standard and VIP tickets can be purchased at Ticketmaster.com or GoldenBoy.com.

In the 12-round co-main event, co-promoted with Miguel Cotto Promotions, Puerto Rico’s WBA, WBO and Ring Magazine minimumweight world champion Oscar “El Pupilo” Collazo (13-0, 10 KOs) will defend his titles against Mexico’s Jesus “Chiquito” Haro (13-3, 2 KOs). Collazo most recently delivered a devastating knockout victory over Jayson Vayson in September 2025 and returns looking to continue his dominant championship run.

In a title bout co-promoted with Sampson Boxing, undisputed flyweight world champion Gabriela “Sweet Poison” Fundora (17-0, 9 KOs) will defend her throne against WBA Interim World Champion Viviana Ruiz Corredor (10-2, 5 KOs), the Australia-based Venezuelan challenger determined to dethrone boxing’s reigning queen in a 10-round clash.

Recently added to the undercard, Santa Ana’s Alexis “Lex” Rocha (25-2-1, 16 KOs) will face former world champion Joseph “JoJo” Diaz Jr. (34-8-1, 15 KOs), representing South El Monte. Diaz Jr. will move up to welterweight to meet Rocha in a 10-round showdown. Opening the DAZN broadcast, Bakersfield’s rising knockout artist Joel Iriarte (9-0, 8 KOs) will square off against Los Angeles’ Rock Myrthil (17-2-1, 13 KOs) in an eight-round welterweight bout.

The preliminary card will stream live on Golden Boy’s YouTube channel and will spotlight some of the company’s top prospects. Representing the Coachella Valley, the undefeated Grant Flores (12-0, 9 KOs) will compete in an eight-round super welterweight contest. Fellow Coachella Valley standout Cayden Griffiths (7-0, 6 KOs) will compete in a six-round welterweight bout. Making his Golden Boy professional debut, Dylan “La Amenaza” Capetillo of Las Vegas will compete in a four-round super lightweight contest. Opponents for all three fighters will be announced shortly.

Also on the preliminary card, Santa Ana’s Fabian Guzman (9-0, 8 KOs) will compete in an eight-round middleweight bout against Julian Delgado (9-1, 4 KOs) of Corpus Christi, Texas. In an eight-round lightweight matchup, Daniel “Junebug” Garcia (12-0, 9 KOs) of Denver will face Blas Caro (12-9, 5 KOs) of Rosario, Argentina. Opening the night, Leonardo “Bazooka” Sanchez (9-0, 7 KOs) will take on an opponent to be announced in a six-round super featherweight bout.
