Tom Loeffler
“This card is one of the deepest cards we’ve promoted in Southern California which has been proven by the rush for tickets and the wealth of media interest. Serhii, Omar and Mizuki are three of the top fighters in their respective weight classes and it’s a great opportunity for fans to see a full night of action from the start to finish of this event.”
“Our undercard with Lupita Medina and Abel Mejia features two true rising stars that have become favorites with their terrific performances at our Hollywood Fight Nights events.”
Serhii Bohachuk
“I feel like I’m the best super welterweight in the world, I’m also very happy to stay active which gives me another training camp with Coach Manny (Robles) and to fight in Los Angeles. I know Mykal Fox very well and he’s a tough challenge for me but I’m well prepared for May 17.”
Omar Trinidad
“The Commerce Casino Events Center is my home, this is my sixth time fighting there and the fan support in Los Angeles is tremendous. For Alexander Espinoza this is a huge opportunity but I’m set on becoming a world champion and I’m ready to put on another great show.” Trinidad is world ranked #2 by the IBF, #6 by the WBC and #8 by the WBO and WBA in addition to #10 by Ring Magazine,
Mizuki Hiruta
“Fighting for the first time in Los Angeles this past January was a dream come true. The Japanese boxing fans were very enthusiastic for me and I will make them proud again in my title defense on May 17. I was very excited to be presented with my Shohei Ohtani jersey today.”
