ЛОС АНГЕЛЕС (Август 22, 2023) – The boxing spotlight shifts back to the Great Northwest this Saturday night as rising super featherweight star Austin Brooks (10-0, 3 КОс) takes on dangerous Anthony Chavez (11-3-1, 3 КОс) in the 10-round main event on a highly competitive pro card, presented by Toro Promotions, АД. and Whitfield Haydon Boxing, at the famed Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma, Вашингтон.

“This card sticks with our theme of compelling regional fights along with club wars,” Haydon said. “More than a couple guys have a chance to get a verdict from the great jury that is the northwest boxing fan and see if they can create a fan base for themselves going forward.”

Fighting out of Coeur d’Alene, Ајдахо, Броокс, who has already fought several times on the ESPN platform, is coming off a six-round decision over veteran Diuhl Olguin this past March in San Diego.

Чавез, an old-fashioned fighter out of San Bernardino, Калифорнија, is trained by well-known Southern Californian Henry Ramirez, who guided Chris Arreola and Josesito Lopez, међу више познатих. Two fights ago, Chavez won a six-round majority decision over Olguin.

Cruz is bouncing back from a six-round majority loss to Luis Gallegos (4-0) last April, while Negrete fought to a six-round split draw in his most recent action this past June.

Chief undercard support will be provided by undefeated Portland super lightweight prospect Lorenza Caldera (6-0, 3 КОс) and Filipino veteran boxer Jake “D’ Twins” Bornea (14-5-1, 7 КОс), the former WBO Asia Pacific Youth Flyweight titleholder.
