In a clash of undefeated super lightweights joining the lineup, San Diego’s own Daniel Morales (8-0, 5 KOs) will welcome Tijuana, Mexico’s Alejandro Garcia Quintana (6-0-1, 5 KOs) stateside for his first professional bout in the U.S. A product of San Diego’s rich boxing ecosystem, 22-year-old Morales returns to action following a two-year lay-off. Both fighters will be tested like never before, as each faces an undefeated opponent for the first time in their careers—setting the stage for a high-stakes showdown.

Another San Diego-born pugilist joins the fight card, as Angel Juan Estrada (12-1-1, 9 KOs) takes on San Jose, Calif., native Pedro Angel Cruz (5-6, 3 KOs). A 20-year veteran, Estrada has proven to be at the top of his game at 38. His last loss came in 2011, and on the strength of seven finishes, Estrada aims to put on a show for San Diego against Cruz, who notched his own knockout victory earlier this year. Lastly, San Diego’s Angel Ramirez gears up for his professional debut against Queretaro, Mexico’s Jose Antonio Sosa Reyna (1-0).

Previously announced, Julius “JuJu” Ballo (2-0), a standout amateur with 60 bouts, is set to co-headline following his statement win against seasoned veteran Juan Centeno, a fighter nearly a decade older with 40 more bouts. Now 2-0, the 2024 Golden Gloves champion faces Santa Ana’s Roman Reyes (6-1, 5 KOs) in a super featherweight clash. Following a breakout 2025, 25-year-old Mansour has quickly emerged as one of the lightweight division’s top prospects. Joining his cousin as co-headliner, Jonny Mansour (6-0, 2 KOs) is a lifelong fighter who began boxing at eight, compiling 140+ amateur wins, earning the No. 1 spot on Team USA, and serving as an Olympic alternate in 2020. A National Golden Gloves champion and San Diego State business student, Mansour now looks to take the next step on April 18 against William King (6-3-2, 3 KOs).
