Rohan Polanco turned pro in 2020 and holds an undefeated record of 15 wins. He lacks KO victories but remains dominant in matches. His most recent fight showcases his consistent winning form against opponents with mixed success records, suggesting he handles well-versed adversaries effectively.
Fabian Maidana turned pro earlier in 2014, boasting a more extensive record of 24 wins and 3 losses. His experience is broader than Polanco’s, facing tougher adversaries across matches. However, his previous opponent's varied weight class strategy might offer Polanco an advantage given similar physical stats.

- Pedro Marquez record: 15-1
- Belts at stake: N/A
Mikito Nakano turned pro in 2021 and holds an unbeaten record of 12 wins. He has not won any fights by knockout. Nakano's recent opponents were not strong enough to predict a tough challenge for him. Given his experience, he seems prepared to maintain his winning streak against Marquez in the same weight class.
Pedro Marquez turned pro a bit earlier and boasts a record of 15 wins and one loss. Like Nakano, none of Marquez’s victories came via knockout. His past opponents were slightly more experienced than Nakano's roster. Marquez’s close bout history suggests he might persist against a non-knockout artist like Nakano.

- Belts at stake: N/A
Art Barrera Jr. turned pro recently and boasts an unbeaten record of 8 wins. He's young and promising in the super welterweight division. His blend of reach and precision poses a danger to opponents, but he has yet to knock anyone out, something that might be needed against more seasoned fighters.
Juan Carlos Guerra is a more experienced fighter with 6 wins, 1 loss, and 1 draw. Despite losing once, his orthodox style complements his solid defense. He's prepared to leverage this experience to outmaneuver Barrera in tonight's match-up.
Emiliano Vargas vs Juan Leon Fight

Emiliano Vargas, also known as "El General," turned pro recently and boasts an undefeated record of 13 wins and no losses. He stands at 178 cm, using his height to control the ring in past matches. His recent fights suggest he will leverage this advantage over his opponents, consistently maintaining dominant performances.
Juan Leon holds a professional record of 11 wins, 2 losses, and 1 draw. Despite his shorter stature at 175 cm, he remains competitive within his division. Compared to prior opponents, Vargas presents a notable challenge due to his unblemished record and longer reach.
Raeese Aleem vs Rudy Garcia Fight
Raeese Aleem faces Rudy Garcia in a featherweight clash with no belts on the line.
- Division/Weight: feather
- Raeese Aleem record: 21-1
- Rudy Garcia record: 13-1
- Belts at stake: N/A
Raeese Aleem, known as "The Beast," went pro in 2011. With a record of 21 wins and 1 loss, Aleem's experience is solid but lacks knockout power. In his last encounter, he faced an opponent with comparable stats which might prepare him for Garcia's style but may struggle against taller opponents due to his lack of reach advantage.
Rudy Garcia, "El Tiburon," started his professional career in 2016. He holds a respectable 13-1-1 fight record. Although without recent notable achievements, Garcia's height and reach might offer him an edge against Aleem’s orthodox style given their comparable fight records.
Patrick O'Connor vs Marcus Smith Fight
Patrick O'Connor faces Marcus Smith in a cruiserweight fight with no belts on the line.
- Division/Weight: cruiser
- Patrick O'Connor record:
- Marcus Smith record: 2-1
- Belts at stake: N/A
Patrick O'Connor has little experience. He appears new to the professional scene and has not fought any recognized opponents, affecting his preparation for this fight. The absence of previous fights makes it difficult to predict his performance against more experienced fighters like Smith.
Marcus Smith holds a record of 2 wins and 1 loss but lacks knockout victories. His opponents weren't high-profile, limiting insights into his capabilities against tougher rivals. Despite minimal exposure, Smith's slight experience advantage may give him the edge over O’Connor today.
