Born in the fertile boxing town of Sinaloa, Meksik, which produced Hall of Famer Julio Cesar Chavez, Sr, nan mitan anpil lòt moun, Gutierrez is making up for lost time. He was a baseball prospect who didn’t box until he was 21. “I played sports in high school, baseball was my first love, and I dreamed of becoming a big leaguer,” Gutierrez said. “Boxing found me.

I’ve watched so many greats train there and I learned a lot from them.

And young Leon, ki te tounen 28 this past Valentine’s Day, is also the nephew of former 2-division world champion Cory Spinks.
His familiar last name in boxing has been a blessing, albeit one that has also put a lot of pressure on Leon. “Things have always been that way (presyon) because I’m named after my grandfather, ‘Pops,'” Leon III explained. “From the beginning of my pro career, I was put in tough fights because of my name, just tough fightsreal wars.
I got to 8-0 but that hurt me because I couldn’t get good fights. But I’ve always really been my own man. This is a very, trè, very big event for me, my family will be in the house supporting me.

Jida (42-9, 29 Ko), goumen soti nan Las Vegas, has been a professional boxer for nearly 20 ane. The southpaw has defeated seven world champions during his outstanding career: Junior Witter, Terron Millet, Demarcus Corley, Raphael Pineda, Corey Spinks, Jozye Clottey ak(interim champ) Lucas Matthysse. The Brooklyn native has an outstanding 11-8 (9 Ko) record in world title fights.
Koulye a,, menm si, his past is in the rearview mirror and Judah’s on a mission to capture his sixth world title. That’s what drives the 38-year-old originally from Brooklyn. “I’m very happy to be headlining the first show of the ‘Knockout Night at the D’ seri,” Judah said. “I’m always comfortable and happy in the squared ring. I enjoy the sport of boxing and have one more goalto be six-time world champion of the world!”

The 24-year-old Torres (15-4-2, 7 Ko) may not have the same name recognition as many of Judah’s past opponents, but the determined prospect from Albuquerque, NM has nothing to lose and everything to gain fighting Judah.
I believe this fight can be life changing, not only for me, but also for upcoming New Mexico fighters,” Torres commented. “Boxing doesn’t get a lot of attention in my state.
Torres is a protégé of the late 5-time world championJohnny Tapia. His brother-in-law, Chris Chavez, now trains Torres, who has been sparring with fellow New Mexican and former world junior middleweight champion, Austin Trout, to prepare for the left-handed Judah.
Torres is also a professional barber who’d like to clip Judah, se konsa yo pale. “I haven’t had a promoter or manager,” he explained the need for him to be a barber as well as a pro boxer. “I’ve always had to work to pay bills. It’s just had to be that way in my boxing career.
