The War Boxing Promotions is making a grand return this Friday, August 9, at the “Fausto Gutiérrez Moreno” Municipal Auditorium. The main event will feature the comeback of undefeated champion Ricardo Martínez, who holds a 20-0 record. He will face off against Joel Juárez, a seasoned fighter with a record of 32-46-2, in an eight-round heavyweight clash.
Both fighters successfully passed their weigh-ins, ensuring they are in top condition for the highly anticipated fight.
“I’m thrilled to be back in Tijuana; it’s been a while since we fought here, and we’re ready to give it our all,” expressed Martínez, affectionately known as “Maykito.” He added, “Juárez is an experienced boxer with many fights under his belt, so we’ve prepared rigorously for an exciting match.”
Promoter Ernesto Neri highlighted that, although the event will consist of only five fights, each promises to be high-quality. “It’s a card with just five fights, but nearly all feature local boxers matched evenly. We aim to give new talents a chance to shine, and holding it in the city’s premier venue, the Municipal Auditorium, ensures an epic showdown,” Neri stated.
