Ray Alcorta’s Boxing and Top Rank brings back boxing to California on February 5th at the Maywood Activity Center in Maywood, California.
The show is part of the Top Rank Live boxing series and airs live on Fox Sports Español (Saturday, 10PM ET/PT).
The hosting venue will also serve as the location for the official weigh-in, which takes place on Friday, February 4th at 1PM. The weigh-in will be open to the public.
The Maywood Activity Center has long been known as a boxing hot bed for prospects and future stars. The venue has played host to a plethora of talent, including but not limited to the likes of Giovani Segura, Edwin Valero, Daniel Ponce de Leon, Jesus ''Renuente'' Soto-Karass, Alfredo ''Perro'' Angulo, Urbano Antillon, Julio Gonzalez, and Francisco Arce.
Continuing in that tradition is a 10-round main event between aspiring super middleweight contenders Francisco Sierra (23-3, 21KO) and Dyah Davis (18-2, 8KO).
Sierra is riding a three-fight win streak, including wins over Donovan George and former WBO Welterweight World champion Jose Luis ''El Maestrito'' Lopez.
Lightweight Oscar ''Estudiante'' Meza 20-4 (17KO) will be in the televised co-feature, squaring off against battle-tested veteran Loo Martinez.
Meza is coming off a spectacular first round knockout win over Jose Hernandez on the undercard of the Manny Pacquiao-Antonio Margarito pay-per-event last November.
The non-televised portion features fighters as far as Europe and as close as around the corner.
Amazingly quick fisted local heavyweight Andy Ruiz 7-0 (5KO) takes on Kelsey Arnold in a six-round swing bout.
Ruiz is coming off a KO win on the Antillon vs. Soto fight card last month at the Honda Center.
Super featherweight Jose Roman (8-0 7KO) makes his 2011 debut as he faces Vegas-based lightweight Johnny Frazier in a six-round bout.
Armenian-born, Russia-based welterweight Arman Ovsepyan 9-1 (7KO) now has an opponent as he meets power-punching Utah native Willie Walton.
In a six-round super lightweight outing, Jose Zepeda 6-0 (5KO) goes up against the seasoned and dangerous Jose Luis Soto-Karass 21-15-1 (19KO).
Making his pro-debut in the opening bout will be bantamweight Raymond Chacon.
Fight is subject to change.
Tickets are priced at $35, $50 and $75. Doors open at 3:30PM with the first bell at 4:15PM.
