SANTA YNEZ, CA (August 13, 2013) - Another addition of the boxing series promoted by Gary Shaw Productions titled "Central Coast Championship" Night" makes it's return to the Chumash Resort Casino in Santa Ynez, Calif.

In the main event, local fan favorite Francisco Santana (16-3-1, 8 KOs), will defend his "Central Coast Championship" in a 10-round super-welterweight bout against former world title challenger Freddy Hernandez (30-5, 20 KOs).

Santana is riding a 4-fight winning streak and looks to continue his march toward a world title. He understands Hernandez is a step up in competition and knows a win will advance his career to the next level.

"This fight with Hernandez is a big step up for me, but that's exactly what I've been asking for," said Santana. "Hernandez has been in the ring with some of the best fighters in boxing. It will be a great opportunity to showcase my skills against a tough opponent and show the boxing world that I'm worthy of fighting for a championship. We both like to come forward so this fight will be very entertaining for the fans. I can't wait to show everyone what I got."

King City's undefeated super-bantamweight prospect, Roman Morales (16-0, 9 KOs) will square off against an opponent TBA in the co-main event. The bout is scheduled for 10 rounds and Morales' "Central Coast Championship" will be on the line.
