A 2012 Olympic Bronze medalist for Brazil, Sao Mateus native Yamaguchi Falcao (1-0) now makes his home in Los Angeles, where he hopes to one day make a run for world championship gold. Last April 26, the 26-year-old southpaw picked up his first professional victory, shutting out Fernando Najera, and this weekend, he will attempt to keep his unbeaten record intact when he faces Arecibo, Puerto Rico's Jesus M. Cruz (1-1-1) in a four/six-round middleweight bout.

Fighting out of County Donegal in Ireland, 23-year-old Jason Quigley has been one of Europe's top amateurs for years, winning several championships and accolades along the way. A member of the Golden Boy Promotions' roster, Quigley is ready to make his pro debut this Saturday in a four-round middleweight contest against Ocala, Florida's Howard Reece (2-6, 1 KO).

A veteran of nearly 300 amateur bouts, Cuba's Yoandris "El Nino" Salinas (20-0-2, 13 KOs) is getting closer to a title shot in the 122-pound weight class.

Back in the ring and hungrier than ever, Salinas will square off in a 10-round bout against tough Los Angeles native Enrique Quevedo (15-7-1, 9 KOs).
