Ryan Garcia Wins in a Flash and Puerto Rico’s Acosta Keeps WBO Title by KO

Published

Ryan Garcia

INDIO, Calif.-Ryan “The Flash” Garcia may not have a world title but that didn’t stop rabid Southern California fans from making the long desert trek to watch Golden Boy’s brightest prospect win another fight by knockout on Saturday.

Despite the short fight, the fans got what they wanted.

A sold out crowd saw Garcia (18-0, 15 KOs) dismantle Puerto Rico’s Jose Lopez (20-4-1, 14 KOs) within three rounds at Fantasy Springs Casino in a lightweight fight. And if you listen to Garcia, a world title fight should be on this year’s agenda.

It didn’t take long for Garcia to find the openings against Lopez who was willing but a tad too slow. In the opening round with only 10 seconds remaining the lean sharpshooting Garcia unleashed a blistering six-punch volley that staggered Lopez at the end of the bell.

In the second round Lopez took the initiative and tried to pressure Garcia into the ropes but he slickly turned the tables and had the Puerto Rican fighter on the ropes instead.

“That’s the one thing I’ve been working on (defense). I’m just working with the best,” said Garcia.

Things just didn’t work out for Lopez, especially when Garcia rocketed a right off his head. It forced the Boricua to look for an escape route. There was none to be found and Garcia trailed him while firing about a dozen blows that saw Lopez collapse to his knees.

“He kept ducking so I just followed him wherever he went,” Garcia said,

Lopez got up before the count expired and the bell rang ending the round. No matter, Lopez’s corner decided their fighter was finished and referee Jack Reiss signaled a knockout win for Garcia at 3 minutes of the second round.

“I need stiffer competition. Do I think I’m ready for world title competition? I’m ready for it,” said Garcia while standing with Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Oscar De La Hoya. “I train with my brother (Canelo) right here,” said Garcia. “I’m training with Eddy Reynoso one of the best trainers in the world. I’m getting better and better and I’m going to get ready for it.”

Alvarez said he was satisfied with Garcia’s performance

“He does what he does in the gym and a lot of people can’t do that,” said Canelo. “He knows what he has to do. He needs to focus on boxing. He already has a lot of fans.”

Is Garcia ready for a world title fight?

“He’s on his way. He’s going to prove it again,” said De La Hoya whose company promotes Garcia. “It’s going to happen sooner or later.”

Acosta Retains WBO Title

WBO light flyweight titlist Angel “Tito” Acosta was not about to let another Mexican fighter take a world title away from a Puerto Rican and guaranteed it with a knockout win on Saturday.

Acosta (20-1, 20 KOs) walked into the lion’s den against Mexican contender Ganigan Lopez (35-9, 19 KOs) at Fantasy Springs Casino, the same venue where his countryman and stablemate Alberto Machado lost his world title to another Mexican fighter two months ago.

Not this time.

Looking sharp and in command Acosta grabbed the first four rounds with steady pressure. Neither fighter was able to connect much and each displayed excellent defense.

Lopez picked up the tempo in the fifth and sixth round behind some blows to the body and was able to slip and counter effectively. But that was about all Acosta was going to allow.

“We worked on walking him down smartly,” said Acosta who trained in Los Angeles with Freddie Roach.

In the eighth round Acosta stepped up his tempo and both fighters exchanged crisp combinations. Acosta connected with a blistering left hook that wobbled Lopez and another two blows had the Mexican fighter trying to hang on but he fell to the ground. He was unable to beat referee Raul Caiz Jr.’s count at 1:55 of the round. Acosta retains the world title and is looking for more.

“I want to unify but I also want to get the big purses. There’s the WBC champion Ken Shiro and the WBA champion Hiroto Kyoguchi,” said Acosta. “I want 25 fights and 25 knockouts.”

Other Bouts

Puerto Rican welterweight Danielito Zorrilla (11-0, 9 KOs) faced veteran Mexican Gamaliel Diaz (40-20-3), a former world champion, and sent him home wondering what happened. A counter left hook by Zorrilla deposited Diaz to the floor and the old veteran could not get up at 2:59 of round two. Zorrilla grabbed his ninth knockout win.

A battle of super featherweights contenders saw Mexico’s Rocky Hernandez (28-0-3, 25 KOs) track down Tanzania’s Ibrahim Class (22-6, 10 KOs) and floor the taller fighter twice in the second round. A three-punch combination floored Class in the corner and after the fight resumed a right uppercut by Hernandez delivered the killing blow as the Tanzanian fighter was counted out by referee Tom Taylor at 1:58 of the second round for a knockout.

Fresh off a recent world title challenge, Antonio Orozco (28-1, 17 KOs) shook off the rust and disappointment of losing to world champion Jose Ramirez with a steady and disciplined effort against Mexico’s Juan Rodriguez (25-13-1, 13 KOs) in a 10-round super lightweight fight. Orozco looked relaxed and determined and turned up the juice midway through the fight.

Joet Gonzalez (22-0, 13 KOs) battered Rodrigo Guerrero (26-8-2, 16 KOs) and won by technical knockout in the fifth round of their featherweight match. Guerrero had never been knocked out before but Gonzalez was too sharp and skilled and was able to connect with sneaky right uppercuts and body shots that felled the Mexican fighter twice before referee Jerry Cantu stopped the fight at 2:57 of round five.

It was an impressive performance and showed the Southern California contender is ready for top competition in the featherweight division. He’s anxious for a world title fight and just might be a tick away from making it happen.

Ireland’s Aaron “The Silencer” McKenna (7-0, 4 KOs) used his length and steady jabs to deliver Loretto Olivas (3-1) his first loss as a professional. McKenna floored Olivas in the first round with a strong one-two and from there on was in complete control to win by unanimous decision after six rounds in a welterweight fight.

“I sparred over 180 rounds with some good fighters like Javier Molina, Sergey Lipinets and Amir Khan for this fight,” said McKenna, 19, who trains in Southern California but is a native of Monaghan, Ireland.

Olivas never quit trying but McKenna was too much of everything and showed the ability to fight at the proper distance and do it well. All three judges scored it 60-53 for McKenna.

“I got a good six rounds against a very tough fighter,” said McKenna. “I was able to work on the one-two that we worked on a lot for this fight.”

Skylar Lacy Blocked for Lamar Jackson before Making his Mark in Boxing

Published

on

Skylar-Lacy-Blocked-for-Lamar-Jackson-Before-Making-his-Mark-in-Boxing

Skylar Lacy, a six-foot-seven heavyweight, returns to the ring on Sunday, Feb. 2, opposing Brandon Moore on a card in Flint, Michigan, airing worldwide on DAZN.

As this is being written, the bookmakers hadn’t yet posted a line on the bout, but one couldn’t be accused of false coloring by calling the 10-round contest a 50/50 fight. And if his frustrating history is any guide, Lacy will have another draw appended to his record or come out on the wrong side of a split decision.

This should not be construed as a tip to wager on Moore. “Close fights just don’t seem to go my way,” says the boxer who played alongside future multi-year NFL MVP Lamar Jackson at the University of Louisville.

A 2021 National Golden Gloves champion, Skylar Lacy came up short in his final amateur bout, losing a split decision to future U.S. Olympian Joshua Edwards. His last Team Combat League assignment resulted in another loss by split decision and he was held to a draw in both instances when stepping up in class as a pro. “In my mind, I’m still undefeated,” says Lacy (8-0-2, 6 KOs). “No one has ever kicked my ass.”

Lacy was the B-side in both of those draws, the first coming in a 6-rounder against Top Rank fighter Antonio Mireles on a Top Rank show in Lake Tahoe, Nevada, and the second in an 8-rounder against George Arias, a Lou DiBella fighter on a DiBella-promoted card in Philadelphia.

Lacy had the Mireles fight in hand when he faded in the homestretch. The altitude was a factor. Lake Tahoe, Nevada (officially Stateline) sits 6,225 feet above sea level. The fight with Arias took an opposite tack. Lacy came on strong after a slow start to stave off defeat.

Skylar will be the B-side once again in Michigan. The card’s promoter, former world title challenger Dmitriy Salita, inked Brandon Moore (16-1, 10 KOs) in January. “A capable American heavyweight with charisma, athleticism and skills is rare in today’s day and age. Brandon has got all these ingredients…”, said Salita in the press release announcing the signing. (Salita has an option on Skylar Lacy’s next pro fight in the event that Skylar should win, but the promoter has a larger investment in Moore who was previously signed to Top Rank, a multi-fight deal that evaporated after only one fight.)

Both Lacy and Moore excelled in other sports. The six-foot-six Moore was an outstanding basketball player in high school in Fort Lauderdale and at the NAIA level in college. Lacy was an all-state football lineman in Indiana before going on to the University of Louisville where he started as an offensive guard as a redshirt sophomore, blocking for freshman phenom Lamar Jackson. “Lamar was hard-working and humble,” says Lacy about the player who is now one of the world’s highest-paid professional athletes.

When Lacy committed to Louisville, the head coach was Charlie Strong who went on to become the head coach at the University of Texas. Lacy was never comfortable with Strong’s successor Bobby Petrino and transferred to San Jose State. Having earned his degree in only three years (a BA in communications) he was eligible immediately but never played a down because of injuries.

Returning to Indianapolis where he was raised by his truck dispatcher father, a single parent, Lacy gravitated to Pat McPherson’s IBG (Indy Boxing and Grappling) Gym on the city’s east side where he was the rare college graduate pounding the bags alongside at-risk kids from the city’s poorer neighborhoods.

Lacy built a 12-6 record across his two seasons in Team Combat League while representing the Las Vegas Hustle (2023) and the Boston Butchers (2024).

For the uninitiated, a Team Combat League (TCL) event typically consists of 24 fights, each consisting of one three-minute round. The concept finds no favor with traditionalists, but Lacy is a fan. It’s an incentive for professional boxers to keep in shape between bouts without disturbing their professional record and, notes Lacy, it’s useful in exposing a competitor to different styles.

“It paid the bills and kept me from just sitting around the house,” says Lacy whose 12-6 record was forged against 13 different opponents.

As a sparring partner, Lacy has shared the ring with some of the top heavyweights of his generation, e.g., Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua and Dillian Whyte. He was one of Fury’s regular sparring partners during the Gypsy King’s trilogy with Deontay Wilder. He worked with Joshua at Derrick James’ gym in Dallas and at Ben Davison’s gym in England, helping Joshua prepare for his date in Saudi Arabia with Francis Ngannou and had previously sparred with Ngannou at the UFC Performance Center in Las Vegas. Skylar names traveling to new places as one of his hobbies and he got to scratch that itch when he joined Whyte’s camp in Portugal.

As to the hardest puncher he ever faced, he has no hesitation: “Ngannou,” he says. “I negotiated a nice price to spend a week in his camp and the first time he hit me I knew I should have asked for more.”

Lacy is confident that having shared the ring with some of the sport’s elite heavyweights will get him over the hump in what will be his first 10-rounder (Brandon Moore has never had to fight beyond eight rounds, having won his three 10-rounders inside the distance). Lacy vs. Moore is the co-feature to Claressa Shields’ homecoming fight with Danielle Perkins. Shields, basking in the favorable reviews accorded the big-screen biopic based on her first Olympic journey (“The Fire Inside”) will attempt to capture a title in yet another weight class at the expense of the 42-year-old Perkins, a former professional basketball player.

Mizuki Hiruta Dominates in her U.S. Debut and Omar Trinidad Wins Too at Commerce

Published

Mizuki-Hiruta-Dominates-in-her-U.S.-Debut-and-Trinidad-Wins-Too-at-Commerce

Japan’s Mizuki Hiruta smashed through Mexico’s Maribel Ramirez with ease in winning by technical decision and local hero Omar Trinidad continued his assault on the featherweight division on Friday.

Hiruta (7-0, 2 KOs), who prefers to be called “Mimi,” made her American debut with an impressive performance against Mexican veteran Maribel Ramirez (15-11-4) and retained the WBO super flyweight world title by unanimous decision at Commerce Casino in Commerce, Calif.

The pink-haired Japanese southpaw champion quickly proved to be quicker, stronger and even better than advertised. In the opening round Ramirez landed on the floor twice after throwing errant blows. On one instance, it could have been ruled a knockdown but it was not a convincing blow.

In the second round, Ramirez again attacked and again was met with a Hiruta check right hook and down went the Mexican. This time referee Ray Corona gave the eight-count and the fight resumed.

It was Hiruta’s third title defense but this time it was on American soil. She seemed nervous by the prospect of getting a favorable review from the more than 700 fans inside the casino tent.

For more than a year Hiruta has been training off and on with Manny Robles in the L.A. area. Now that she has a visa, she has spent considerable time this year learning the tricks of the trade. They proved explosively effective.

Though Mexico City’s Ramirez has considerable experience against world champions, she discovered that Hiruta was not easy to hit. Often, the Japanese champion would slip and counter with precision.

It was an impressive American debut, though the fight was stopped in the eighth round after a collision of heads. The scores were tallied and all three saw Hiruta the winner by scores of 80-71 twice and 79-72.

“I’m so happy. I could have done much more,” said Hiruta through interpreter Yuriko Miyata. “I wanted to do more things that Manny Robles taught me.”

Trinidad Wins Too

Omar Trinidad (18-0-1, 13 KOs) discovered that challenger Mike Plania (31-5, 18 KOs) has a very good chin and staying power. But over 10 rounds Trinidad proved to be too fast and too busy for the Filipino challenger.

Immediately it was evident that the East L.A. featherweight was too quick and too busy for Plania who preferred a counter-puncher attack that never worked.

“He was strong,” said Trinidad. “He took everything.”

After 10 redundant rounds all three judges scored for Trinidad 100-90 twice and 99-91. He retains the WBC Continental Americas title.

Other Bouts

Ali Akhmedov (23-1, 17 KOs) blasted out Malcolm Jones (17-5-1) in less than two rounds. A dozen punches by Akhmedov forced referee Thomas Taylor to stop the super middleweight fight.

Iyana “Roxy” Verduzco (3-0) bloodied Lindsey Ellis in the first round and continued the speedy assault in the next two rounds. Referee Ray Corona saw enough and stopped the fight in favor of Verduzco at 1:34 of the third round.

Gloria Munguilla (7-1) and Brook Sibrian (5-2) lit up the boxing ring with a nonstop clash for eight rounds in their light flyweight fight. Munguilla proved effective with a slip-and-counter attack. Sibrian adjusted and made the fight closer in the last four rounds but all three judges favored Munguilla.

More Winners

Joshua Anton, Tayden Beltran, Adan Palma, and Alexander Gueche all won their bouts.

Avila Perspective, Chap. 309: 360 Promotions Opens with Trinidad, Mizuki and More

Avila Perspective, Chap. 309: 360 Promotions Opens with Trinidad, Mizuki and More

Best wishes to the survivors of the Los Angeles wildfires that took place last week and are still ongoing in small locales.

Most of the heavy damage took place in the western part of L.A. near the ocean due to Santa Ana winds. Another very hot spot was in Altadena just north of the Rose Bowl. It was a horrific tragedy.

Hopefully the worst is over.

Pro boxing returns with 360 Boxing Promotions spotlighting East L.A.’s Omar Trinidad (17-0-1, 13 KOs) defending a regional featherweight title against Mike Plania (31-4, 18 KOs) on Friday, Jan. 17, at the Commerce Casino in Commerce, Calif.

“I’m the king of L.A. boxing and I’ll be ready to put on a show headlining again in the main event. This is my year, I’m ready to challenge and defeat any of the featherweight world champions,” said Trinidad.

UFC Fight Pass will stream the Hollywood Night fight card that includes a female world championship fight and other intriguing match-ups.

Tom Loeffler heads 360 Promotions and once again comes full force with a hot prospect in Trinidad. If you’re not familiar with Loeffler’s history of success, he introduced America to Oleksandr Usyk, Gennady “GGG” Golovkin and the brothers Wladimir and Vitaly Kltischko.

“We’ve got a wealth of international talent and local favorites to kick off our 2025 in grand style,” said Loeffler.

He knows talent.

Trinidad hails from the Boyle Heights area of East L.A. near the Los Angeles riverbed. Several fighters from the past came from that exact area including the first Golden Boy, Art Aragon.

Aragon was a huge gate attraction during the late 1940s until 1960. He was known as a lady’s man and dated several Hollywood starlets in his time. Though he never won a world title he did fight world champions Carmen Basilio, Jimmy Carter and Lauro Salas. He was more or less the king of the Olympic Auditorium and Los Angeles boxing during his career.

Other famous boxers from the Boyle Heights area were notorious gangster Mickey Cohen and former world champion Joey Olivo.

Can Trinidad reach world title status?

Facing Trinidad will be Filipino fighter Plania who’s knocked off a couple of prospects during his career including Joshua “Don’t Blink” Greer and Giovanni Gutierrez. The fighter from General Santos in the Philippines can crack and hold his own in the boxing ring.

It’s a very strong fight card and includes WBO world titlist Mizuki Hiruta of Japan who defends the super flyweight title against Mexican veteran Maribel Ramirez. It’s a tough matchup for Hiruta who makes her American debut. You can’t miss her with that pink hair and she has all the physical tools to make a splash in this country.

Mizukii Hiruta

Mizukii Hiruta

Two other female bouts are also planned, including light flyweight banger L.A.’s Gloria Munguilla (6-1) against Coachella’s Brook Sibrian (5-1) in a match set for six rounds. Both are talented fighters. Another female fight includes super featherweights Iyana “Right Hook Roxy” Verduzco (2-0) versus Lindsey Ellis (2-1) in another six-rounder. Ellis can crack with all her wins coming via knockout. Verduzco is a multi-national titlist as an amateur.

Others scheduled to perform are Ali Akhmedov, Joshua Anton, Adan Palma and more.

Doors open at 4:30 p.m.

Boxing and the Media

The sport of professional boxing is currently in flux. It’s always in flux but no matter what people may say or write, boxing will survive.

Whether you like Jake Paul or not, he proved boxing has worldwide appeal with monstrous success in his last show. He has media companies looking at the numbers and imagining what they can do with the sport.

Sure, UFC is negotiating a massive billion dollar deal with media companies, as is WWE, both are very similar in that they provide combat entertainment. You don’t need to know the champions because they really don’t matter. Its about the attractions.

Boxing is different. The good champions last and build a following that endures even beyond their careers a la Mike Tyson.

MMA can’t provide that longevity, but it does provide entertainment.

Currently, there is talk of establishing a boxing league again. It’s been done over and over but we shall see if it sticks this time.

Pro boxing is the true warrior’s path and that means a solo adventure. It’s a one-on-one sport and that appeals to people everywhere. It’s the oldest sport that can be traced to prehistoric times. You don’t need classes in Brazilian Jiujitsu, judo, kick boxing or wrestling. Just show up in a boxing gym and they can put you to work.

It’s a poor person’s path that can lead to better things and most importantly discipline.
