UNBEATEN PROSPECTS SANTIAGO GUEVARA, OSCAR NEGRETE AND JOET GONZALEZ COMPETE ON JULY 9 EDITION OF FOX SPORTS 1 AND FOX DEPORTES GOLDEN BOY LIVE! SERIES FROM THE JOINT AT HARD ROCK HOTEL & CASINO IN LAS VEGAS

LAS VEGAS (July 7, 2014) - Unbeaten Southern California prospects Santiago Guevara,Oscar Negrete and Joet Gonzalez will make the trip to The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas on Wednesday, July 9 when they compete in separate bouts on theGolden Boy Live! undercard aired on FOX Sports 1 and FOX Deportes. The event is part of a mega-fight week capped off by the highly anticipated junior middleweight bout between Mexican superstar Canelo Alvarez and Erislandy "The American Dream" Lara onSaturday, July 12 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena and televised live on SHOWTIME PPV®. In the Golden Boy Live! main event on it's the return of former world title contender Alfonso Gomez as he battles Ed Paredes in a 10-round junior middleweight bout. Plus, 2012 United States Olympian Joseph "JoJo" Diaz competes in his first 10-round featherweight bout against Guanajuato up-and-comer Ramiro "Zurdo" Robles and 19-year-old phenom Diego "The Golden Kid" De La Hoya risks his unbeaten record against veteran Miguel Tamayo in a six round junior featherweight. "This is the perfect treat for the fight fans in Las Vegas and we're bringing an action-packed show to FOX Sports 1 and FOX Deportes viewers," said Oscar De La Hoya, president and founder of Golden Boy Promotions. "Ed Paredes can make a big move up the rankings if he can get by the always-dangerous Alfonso Gomez and in Joseph Diaz Jr. and Diego De La Hoya, we're getting a look at the future of this great sport, but they'll be tested in their fights." U.S. Olympian Joseph Diaz Jr. (11-0, 7 KOs) has used his immense talents to impress the boxing world since the London Games. The 21-year-old from South El Monte, Calif. has shown maturity beyond his years along the way. Diaz is coming off of a shutout win over the 50-fight veteran Luis Maldonado in April. Diaz will stay busy in a 10-round featherweight bout against fellow prospect Ramiro "Zurdo" Robles (11-1-1, 6 KOs) who has compiled a seven-fight win streak heading into this bout. Like his opponent, the Guanajuato southpaw is 21 years old and hungry to make an impression in his United States debut. Nineteen-year-old Mexicali phenom Diego De La Hoya (5-0, 3 KOs) is starting to garner the buzz once heard by his cousin, newly inducted Hall of Famer Oscar De La Hoya. Looking to stay active in 2014, "The Golden Kid" will be making his fourth appearance in the ring since February. On July 9, De La Hoya will look to keep his win streak alive when he faces Ciudad Obregon'sMiguel Tamayo (14-8-2, 12 KOs) in a six-round junior featherweight matchup. Coming off of a tough loss to top contender Gary Russell Jr., Tamayo hopes to get off to a fast start against De La Hoya and with 11 of his knockouts coming in four rounds or less, he has the tools to pull off the upset. In a six-round lightweight rematch, Los Angeles' Santiago Guevara (7-0, 3 KOs) returns to the ring for the third time this year when he faces Las Vegas' own Rocco Espinoza (4-8). Guevara came out on top of a four-round split decision win over Espinoza in January, but this time around, Espinoza vows to even the score, while Guevara looks to keep the judges out of it. A former amateur star in Colombia who now makes his home in Los Angeles, unbeaten Oscar Negrete (5-0, 1 KO) has impressed fans with his ring savvy and championship potential. On July 9, he will face Carlos Medina (1-0) of Nayarit, Mexico in a four-round junior featherweight bout. In the opening bout of the evening scheduled for six rounds in the featherweight division, Glendora's Joet Gonzalez (7-0, 1 KO) faces off against San Diego's David Clark (6-3, 4 KOs). Gomez vs. Paredes is a 10-round junior middleweight bout presented by Golden Boy Promotions and sponsored by Corona and O'Reilly Auto Parts.

(January 31) - It's a super week in New York City and several of the five boroughs' finest boxing talent showed their super skills Thursday night at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.  The action culminated with a surprising second round knockout of former WBC Welterweight World Champion "Vicious" Victor Ortiz (29-5-2, 22 KO's) as a result of a right hook thrown by WBA International Welterweight Champion and Brooklyn native Luis Collazo(35-5, 18 KO's). "I had no doubt in my mind that I was going to win," said Collazo.  "I went through hard times and maybe I wasn't ready before, but I was ready today. "When I was in the locker room, the joy, happiness and excitement hit me that I have the opportunity to perform in Brooklyn in front of my fans and the people I grew up with here," he continued. "I knew Ortiz was going to come out and be aggressive and I had to stay focused and stick to the game plan.  People say that I can't punch, but I guess they're wrong." Ortiz, who was away from the ring for 19 months, looked well conditioned and ready when the fight began.  However, Collazo stuck to his game plan and wasn't fazed by Ortiz's aggressive start to the bout.  With a right hook to the chin, Collazo sent Ortiz to the canvas and a flurry of punches that followed ended the fight in 2:59 of the second round. "I'm good," said Ortiz.  "I got caught.  No big deal.  It happens. I put my heart out there." In the co-main event undefeated prospect Eddie "E-Boy" Gomez (16-0, 10 KO's) defeated previously unbeaten Daquan "King" Arnett (11-1, 7 KO's) of Orlando, FL in a hard-fought 10-round super welterweight bout.  Gomez, who with this win puts himself in a position for a world title shot, was elated when he heard his name called as the fighter with his undefeated record intact. "I just took my time in there and did what I had to do," said Gomez. "Now I'm just happy." Gomez continued, "I should have gone to the body earlier and I think I could have gotten him in four or five rounds.  I'm just thankful for the opportunity to get this fight. I took full advantage and worked hard." Arnett, was gracious in defeat and enthusiastic about the road ahead despite his first loss. "This is the beginning for me not the end," said Arnett.  "I am going to come back stronger and will take this and learn from it." Undefeated Gary Russell Jr. (24-0, 11 KO's) of Capitol Heights, MD kicked off the FOX Sports 1/FOX Deportes telecast with a bang in the form of a fourth-round knockout of Obregon, Mexico's Miguel Tamayo (14-8-2, 12 KO's).  Despite a slow start in the opening round, Russell Jr. turned up the energy and showcased his skills, sending Tamayo to the canvas in the fourth round, rendering him unable to get up from the canvas. "I felt good in the ring tonight," said Russell Jr.  "I paced myself and worked towards what I wanted.  I felt prepared.  I went through six weeks of training and I rose to the occasion. Russell Jr. continued, "I am looking toward the future and getting a shot at a world title." In non-televised undercard action, some of New York's most exciting young prospects showcased their skills with impressive wins. Barclays Center regular "Sir" Marcus Browne (9-0, 7 KO's) of Staten Island made the most of his seventh appearance at the arena as he went the distance against Shreveport, LA's Kentrell Claiborne (4-9, 3 KO's) in a six-round cruiserweight bout. The 2012 U.S. Olympian was happy that his opponent had a "head made of stone" so that he could get more experience in the ring. "I got some good rounds in," said Browne.  "I'm learning how to be a distance fighter and to prove I could keep my composure." Local Bronx up and comer Emmanuel "Manny" Gonzalez (14-0, 7 KO's) went the distance against Victor Sanchez of Houston, TX (5-8-2, 2 KO's) in an eight-round featherweight matchup that saw Gonzalez winning nearly ever round on all three judges' scorecards despite a point deduction for holding in the seventh round.  Gonzalez also looked at his eight-round bout as a learning experience. "This is the first eight-rounder that I've fought [that has gone the distance] in about a year and a half," said Gonzalez. "I definitely got a little winded, but I will work even harder next time and continue to be undefeated." Newly-signed Golden Boy Promotions prospect Zachary "Zungry" Ochoa (6-0, 3 KO's) of Brooklyn put on a strong performance in a four-round super lightweight fight against Jose Valderrama (3-7, 3 KO's) of Manati, Puerto Rico in Ochoa's inaugural performance as a member of the Golden Boy Promotions stable. In the first fight of the evening, Rafael Vasquez of Brooklyn, NY (10-1, 8 KO's) scored a first-round technical knockout over Bradley Patraw (10-7, 5 KO's) of St. Paul, Minn. in featherweight action that was scheduled for eight rounds. Ortiz vs. Collazo was presented by Golden Boy Promotions and sponsored by Corona and Casamigos Tequila.

"I feel like I'm an all-around fighter.  I can box, I can punch, I can sit in the pocket and fight inside and outside.  The main thing is I can adjust and adapt to anything. "I think these are some great, fan-friendly fights.  I like to give the fans what they want to see. [On fighting Gomez as amateurs] "It keeps coming up, but all I can say is we're men now.  We keep growing up and we'll see what happens on Thursday.  We were kids then, running around the ring throwing punches. "I expect a good entertaining fight, something the fans will love to see.  This will get both of us back on TV again.  It will definitely be a win on my end. "We are going to have a great show Thursday night so everyone get your tickets." GARY RUSSELL JR., Undefeated Super Featherweight Prospect "I had a fun training camp.  A lot of people approach this as a job, I understand that but for me, training camp was fun because I'm fighting a southpaw and I'm a southpaw. "Anyone who knows me knows that I'm the oldest of six boys and all of us our southpaws. "We're animals, soldiers and warriors and I'm looking forward to bouncing around six, seven, eight rounds." MARCUS BROWNE, 2012 U.S. Olympian & Light Heavyweight Rising Star "This is my sixth time fighting at Barclays Center and I'm ready to go out and take another step forward in my pro career.

"Signing with Golden Boy was a beautiful thing for me.  I couldn't really get fights.  For someone with my work ethic who trains all year it was disappointing not to get fights.  But Golden Boy saw something in me and I'm excited they decided to sign me. "Teachers in school used to say I wasn't going to graduate, but I graduated high school, got accepted to college and I chose a different path. "I am blessed with talent and I am so hungry to be the best, that's why I call myself Zungry."
