This marks the first time Luna will be fighting in his hometown and he's promising to deliver a great night of boxing.

"In addition to being a great boxer, Alejandro has also followed his family's life long tradition of competing in Mexican rodeo's which is very popular in Mexican culture. Most of the males in his family have competed in the sport of rodeos, "Charreadas" in Spanish and Alejandro has kept that tradition alive on top of his great boxing career. I see Luna becoming a big star in the near future." The Pico Rivera Sports Arena is located at 11003 Rooks Rd, Whittier, CA 90601.
