Promoter Jesús Sánchez shared, “We are truly excited to wrap up the year with this event, which we call the ‘Christmas Toy Drive.’ It’s a gesture of gratitude for all the events we’ve held throughout the year. Entry is a small non-violent toy to support an orphanage in Rosarito with over 70 children.”
The fight card includes not only Mixed Martial Arts disciplines like Kickboxing, Muay Thai, and Jiu-jitsu, but also boxing, showcasing the region’s talent. “Chochuy” explained, “We are using a different venue this time, so we’ll see some local professional fighters who have made it to the UFC compete.”
Despite the venue change, UFC fighters such as Jazmín Jáuregui, Jesús Aguilar, and Edgar Chairez will be present, offering fans and fighters an opportunity to meet these athletes. It promises to be an event full of excitement and community spirit. Doors open at noon.
