Undefeated prospect Emmanuel “Renegade” Robles (15-0-1, 5 KO), v boji zo San Diega, faces Canadian welterweight champion Steve “The Dragon” Claggett (33-4-1, 16 KO) in the 10-round main event for the vacant North American Boxing Association (Tiež) – United States junior welterweight championship.
The 28-year-old Robles is a former WBC Latino super lightweight champion, as well as a 2008 National PAL gold medalist. The gifted southpaw has reeled-off 11consecutive victories since his 2012 draw with 7-0 Adrian Vargas. NABA No. 1 contender Robles’ signature win to date was last year’s second-round stoppage of Leon Spinks III, grandson of former heavyweight champion and Olympic gold medalist Leon Spinks, who left the ring on a stretcher. Also notable are winning decisions versus 15-1 Yordenis ugas a 13-1 Jonathan Chicas. His last fight was a fourth-round technical knockout of Gerardo Cuevas tento rok v máji.
Claggett, 27, is coming off of a disputed 10-round majority decision loss to Chris Van Heerden (23-2-1) last April at the DLVEC. Fighting out of Calgary, Alberta, Claggett is dropping down one weight class in order to challenge junior welterweight Robles for the vacant NABA – United States title.
