Heavyweight Gustavo Trujillo Has a New Date Returns May 30 at War Memorial Auditorium in Fort Lauderdale

PhilBoxing.com




FORT LAUDERDALE, FL (May 7, 2026) — Undefeated WBO #14 ranked heavyweight contender, Gustavo Trujillo (10-0, 9 KOs), has a new date and location for his long-awaited return as he is set to face seasoned veteran Sergio Ramirez Marin (22-8, 12 KOs). The scheduled 10-round heavyweight clash will now take place at the historic War Memorial Auditorium in Fort Lauderdale, FL, on May 30, 2026. The event will be promoted by American Dream Presents.

Known to fight fans as “The Cuban Assassin,” Trujillo, a popular Cuban Heavyweight, has become one of the sport’s most dangerous knockout artists. In addition to his undefeated professional boxing record, the Miami-based slugger is also the reigning BKB Heavyweight Champion in bare-knuckle boxing, where he owns a perfect 8-0 record with every victory ending in the first round.

A standout amateur talent originally from Cuba, Trujillo has earned recognition for his explosive punching power, aggressive style, and growing popularity among fight fans throughout the United States and Latin America.

“This new date and fighting in Fort Lauderdale has me extremely motivated,” said Trujillo. “South Florida has become home to me, and I’m excited to perform in front of the fans who continue supporting my journey. Every fight is another step toward the top of the heavyweight division.”

The additional preparation time has only sharpened Trujillo’s focus heading into the matchup. “The extra time has been a blessing for my camp,” Trujillo added. “I’ve been able to improve every part of my game. I’m getting stronger, faster, and more dangerous each week. Fans are going to see the best version of Gustavo Trujillo on May 30.”

Representatives involved with Trujillo’s career believe the new setting and date maintain the same high expectations surrounding his continued rise. “We’re excited about bringing Gustavo back in Fort Lauderdale on May 30,” said Abe Swidan of Visionary Sports Group, who managers Trujillo. “The location and date may have changed, but the expectations remain exactly the same. Gustavo continues to develop into a major force in the heavyweight division, and we expect him to deliver another memorable performance.”
