Once again the annual boxing event at the Flight Museum in Dallas, Texas returns and this time “2015 A NIGHT TO FIGHT” brings with it an exciting night of professional boxing. This year the Ring of Hope is teaming up with Jesse Rodriguez and CKO promotions for this special event. This special occasion will benefit the Ring of Hope Boxing Club which is managed by head trainer Hector Pena, a former professional fighter from Dallas, Texas. The Ring of Hope is where both amateur and up and coming professional boxers train for the future development of local athletes both in and out of the ring. It is a local Dallas, Texas boxing gym where many professional fighters have trained, including Dallas’ world contender Roberto Marroquin (24-3, 17K’S). The event includes some great sponsors such as Home Depot, Sherwin Williams and many Title and Heavyweight sponsors that give to this event and have been giving for many years.
The main event will be the talented bantamweight Oscar Mojica (5-0, 1KO) from Dallas, Texas fighting out of the Ring Of Hope Boxing Club. The last time NTF saw Mojica was in April of last year when he delivered a sensational knockout on CKO3 in the second round, and most recently he won a unanimous decision in El Paso where he got a unanimous decision against Joel Garcia (7-3, 1KO). On Thursday night, Mojica will be stepping into the ring for the Texas bantamweight title against veteran Alejandro Moreono (24-32, 11Ko’s) from Mexico in his first eight round fight. Also on the card is the tough Alex Del Bosque (5-2, 3KO’S) from Monterrey, Mexico. Del Bosque last fought on CKO4 in Fort Worth, Texas where he upset hometown favorite Manuel Rojas (9-2, 2KO’s) in a six round match that had the crowd on their feet.
In addition to that, Dallas’s Jose Rodriguez (7-1, 3KO’s) is coming back to the ring after a short layoff after accepting a scholarship to college. He will be returning to the ring in a scheduled four round fight at 142 pounds. Also on the card is Javier Garcia who will be making his boxing debut against Andrew Sosa in a scheduled four round fight. Other fighters to be announced on fight night.
