“Going down to middleweight has always been the plan,” Romero noted. “My dream is to be a multi-world champion in different weight classes. I’m excited to see how I feel going to middleweight and see how I feel after this fight. Our plan is to go even lower in weight to super welterweight.

“I’m ready and excited to fight 8-rounds. Our opposition will be tougherwe know thatso we are preparing for a hard fought 8-rounder or finish it earlier Either way we are coming Shark Style!"

Proud of his Mexican American heritage, Marco’s boxing idols are Saul “Canelo” Alvarez, Julio Cesar Chavez atque, utique, his namesake, Marco Antonio Barrera.

Kansas Athletic Commission overturns ‘No Contest’ to TKO win for undefeated super middleweight prospect Marco Romero

Kansas urbe, May. (June 4, 2025) -The Kansas Athletic Commission has overturned a “no Contest” ruling to a second-round technical knockout victory for 19-year-old boxing phenom Marco“El Tiburón”Romero (7-0, 6 KOs).

Romero, fighting out of Olathe (OK), faced Noah Kidd (10-14-2, 5 KOs) on May 24th in a scheduled six-round bout outdoors at Energy Plaza in downtown Topeka, Kansas.

Romero completely dominated Kidd, who was reluctant to fight once he felt Marco’s strength, and he was floored in the second round. Kidd then claimed he was unable to continue fighting due to an injury he suffered after falling out of the ring.

Marco’s manager/head trainer John Brown immediately filed a protest requesting the “No Contest” be changed to a well-deserved win for Romero. His challenge noted that the alleged injury was not the result of a foul, Romero was physically able and ready to continue the bout, and circumstances surrounding the fall and stoppage warranted further review.

“I’m glad I got that win on my record,"Romero dixit". “I put in a lot of hard work in the gym, running and making sacrifices during training camp. I’m happy the Kansas Athletic Commission took its time, watched the fight and made its ruling. The dude only came to pick up a paycheck.”

The Kansas Athletic Commission reviewed the incident and determined that Kidd’s injury from falling out of the ring was accidental, not caused by Romero. The bout was stopped by the ringside physician for medical reasons. Romero did not violate any rules and was capable of continuing the fight.

Based on the Commissions review of circumstances and applicable regulations, the bout did not meet the threshold for a ‘No Contest’ ruling under Kansas law, as the injury did not arise from a rule violation or external interference.

Considering these findings, the Kansas Athletic Commission ruled to overturn the original rules and amended it as an official recording as a Technical Knockout (QUI) victory in favor of Romero.

“Marco came to fight but his opponent wanted to play rugby, trying to run him over and tackle him,” Brown commented. “His opponent hurt himself with these tactics and upon closer examination, the commission did the right thing.”

Romero’s next scheduled fight is June 14 vs. Nafys Anas Garner in a 6-round super middleweight bout in Portland, Maine.

Undefeated Kansas Boxing Phenom Marco “El Tiburón” Romero to continue touring, Topeka debut May 24

Kansas urbe, May. (May 8, 2025) -The Magical Mystery Tour for Kansas boxing phenom Marco“El Tiburón”Romero (6-0, 5 KOs) will make a new stop on Saturday, May 24th, when the 19-year-old super middleweight faces upset specialist Noah Kidd in a six-round bout outdoors at Energy Plaza in downtown Topeka, Kansas.

Not only is this event considerably closer to his Olathe (OK) home than anywhere Romero has fought so far as a professional, but it is also a widely successful annual show that has reportedly drawn 8,000 fans.

“I’m super excited, pumped up to fight only a 45-minute drive from my hometown for my fans,"Romero dixit". “They don’t need to drive 15 hours like they have or fly cross country. I’m really going to put on a show for my hometown fans. It’ll be nice to hear hometown fans cheering me on. Other than relatives who live in Denver, I made a few new fans in the other places I’ve fought. They’re starting to know who I am, and it’s really cool for people to come up to me saying they follow me.”

The 29-year-old Kidd (10-13-2, 5 KOs), fighting out of Jefferson, Missouri, recently knocked off then-18-0 Deshawn Prather by way of a 6-round unanimous decision.

“This will be Marco’s seventh fight in a year since turning pro because we have Marco on a fast track due to his vast amateur experience and desire to stay active and improve,” Romero’s legendary manager/trainer John Brown explained. “We are hopeful that Noah Kidd can withstand Marco’s shark (Marco’s nickname‘El Tiburón’ means ‘The Shark’ in Englishbites and give him several rounds of good work.”

Ex officio, the 23-time national amateur champion Romero has fought in Portland, Maine and Denver twice apiece, Tampa and Atlantic City. His aggressive schedule tentatively continues after Topeka on June 14 in Portland (ME), June 27 in Wichita (OK), July 25 in Atlantic urbem, September 6 in Olathe and back to Portland (ME) on November 8.

“I love fighting this schedule, fighting every month or two,” Romero noted. “Maybe over time with all the wear and tear could tire me. But I was born to box; it’s my dream. Whoever Coach John (Brown) puts in front of me; I tell him I got him.

“I do think about when I’ll be fighting only twice a year for a lot more money than I’m making today. That’s my goal but I’m focused on the present. I’m working hard every day to get better. In finem,, I want to walk away from boxing healthy and hopefully wealthy, like Coach John says. I really like this plan.”

“’El Tiburon’ has four, maybe five bouts scheduled for the rest of the year and at that time, or before, we will partner up with one of the highly recognized promotional groups that have been pursuing Marco,” Brown added. “He is a promoter’s dream: iuvenes, handsome, articulate, bilingual, and he has an action-packed style. After watching ‘Canelo’ (Alvarez) last weekend……boxing needs a Marco Romero.”

Futurum pugilatum 18 annos Marco "El Tiburón" Romero Kansas super middleweight redit ad anulum

Hac nocte in Portland, ME
Kansas urbe, May. (November 7, 2024) - Viginti tres dies nationalis amateur champion, 18-Annorum Kansas super med prospectus Marco "El Tiburón" Romero (3-0, 2 KOs), Hoc Saturni nocte redit ad scaenam prosperitatis suae pro debut hoc praeteritum Iunii in Portland, Maine, 1,300 milia passuum inter septentriones et domum suam in TERRESTRIS Park, Kansas.

Quisque libero agente, Romero compositus est contra Orlando "El Marro" Salgado (3-5, 2 KOs) in quattuor rotundis in card promotus a Bobby Russo Portland Boxing Club in Portland's Exposition Aedificii.

"Ego quoque primus pro pugna ibi et populus amo Portland", praesertim Gaius Russo (qui etiam Praeses Glovesi Nationalis Aur),"Romero dixit". "Ego dilexit turba, omnibus tam hospitio, dicens, 'Ite KC.' Est vis bona et gratior esse non potui.

Romero, quis celebrabit 19th die natalis Nov. 19, est specialis pugil et iuvenis. Ultima 12 menses plane mirabilem turbinem ei in caestu fuisse.

Quia non pervenerat ad aetatem amet 18 tamen, et pondus classis (super middleweight) non includitur in 2024 Olympiae caestu, Romero numquam serio considerari exspectans a offa ad US faciens. Olympiae Team. Instead, Oculi eius ad praemium professionalis pugnator.

Last October, Romero summos honores cepit ad prestigiosos USA Boxing National Championships in Lafayette, Louisiana, subsecutus est eludere ad aurum numisma faciendum 2024 National Golden Gloves Tournament in Detroit.

Omnibus nuntiatum est, in ultimo 12 mensibus, erat 9-0 in amateur competition, comprehendo tres apud Nationales et quinque ad Gloves aureae, plus tribus pro victoriis ob insignem 12-0 record (tria pro and * 8 in elite nationalibus amateur competition) inter haec relative brevis spatium.

Romero Plan semper fuit ut incredibilem curriculum amateur suum clauderet conciliando Nationales Gloves et Aurei, ad quem etiam nominatus est Pugil Praestantissimus, quae Puer aurei Award, et conversus pro *. Missio peracta!
(L-R) - Praeses Bobby Russo et Marco Romero aurei Gloves cum balteo aureo Gloves et Puer Award aurei)

"Volebam pugnasse in Olympia","Explicavit", "Quia omnia bona", iuvenes pugiles erant ibi, et " (U.S. hominibus) Numisma Olympicum Aurum quod Andre Ward non vicit in 2004. Sed non convertam 18 usque ad duas hebdomades prior est (Paris) Olympia et genus meum pondus non ibi pugnatum est.

"Nunc, In novo itinere sum sicut pro. Honeste, non nimis multae differentiae sunt inter amantes et pros. Pondo-ins recta sunt ante pugnam in amantibus et nox ante ut pro. Nullas quaestiones sine petaso aut cum chirothecis minoribus habeo. Mihi nullae revera sunt magnae differentiae. Natus sum pugnare!”

Gravis Caesar se describit Romero qui omne ferrum in mala voluntate proiicit. Valde explosivum est cum intelligentia anuli, ulcisci posse adversarium, ut eos frangat, donec aut quieti sint, quod nullam poenam capere possunt aut dormire..

In angulo Romero iure suo legenda est, 77-annos natus Ioannes Brown, qui est caput Marci lanista et procurator, in eodem munere pro mundo heavyweight fortissimus Thomas Morrison lusit (48-3-1, 42 KOs) ex amateur diebus primis 39 pro pugnat, 1988 ad 1993. In CALEO, utique, Morrison unanimi consilio de George Foreman de mundo vacans Organization Boxings fuit 12-rotundus (WBO) title heavyweight.

Brown plane non opus est in angulo Romero superesse; tamen, Ioannes scit Marcum singularem esse pugnatorem cum ingenti concitatione, et vovit se eum in cacumen montis pugilatus obtinere.
"Ego excitatur de hoc hedo","Brown dictum", "Et officium meum est ut bene sibi et suis. Marcus mirabile est hedum in frusta concerperet. Experientia cohibenti 10 annos 135 amateur pugnat. Forma bona habet et personalitatem bonam, magnus sensus humor, optime loquitur Anglice et Hispanice, pubertatis suae ultra annos, et opus ethicum quod in caestu invenire difficile est.

"Ille esurit ut bene sit in vita et scit eum in pugilatu esse vehiculum ut ibi". Estque cum populo iure qui populum alere non opus est. Quidquid potest errabis sicut iniurias vel infirmitates, sed ibi omnia sunt ei et via clara. Secundum potentiale, Marcus est in rara classis sicut pars typicam familiae Mexicanae Americanae, stricta connexum et expanding. omnes honorat et Marcus semel in vita ingenii est."

Brown scit pugilem pugilem in angulo adminiculo indigere. Romero habet hoc et plus. Praeter Brown, turma constat patris Marci, Salvator, qui filium adhortatus est ut pugil factus esset in septem annis tenera, et ipse cum Marco per omnem gradum pugnse iter fecit. Brown intulit etiam unum ex pugilibus amateurs pristinis, Sergius Flores, qui egregie negotiator. Flores tractat de aspectibus duris corporis exercitationis requisitae in anulo cum labore mitt ut adiuvent artes Marco acutas novaculas custodiendi.

Fans quae sequuntur spectaculum istud noctis Saturni in Portland paucis annis respicere possunt et dicunt se videre Future of Boxing, Marcus "El Tiburon" Romero, cum iam esset XVIII annorum spes proficiscens ad magnitudinem.
