Undefeated lightweight Jesus “Pollo” Hernandez will return to action this Friday night, January 23 at the Quiet Cannon in Montebello, CA.
Hernandez, born in Los Mochis, Mexico, now fighting out of East Los Angeles, will face Mexican veteran Manuel “Diablito” Sarabia in a scheduled six round bout at "Battle Of The Rising Stars", promoted by Ed Holmes’ All Star Boxing.
“Pollo” is coming off a fifth round stoppage of Noe Inzunza on July 11 at the Quiet Cannon which moved his undefeated record to 7-0-0 (2).
Said manager Frank Espinoza, “Jesus took a little time off after the Inzunza fight but we’re looking to stay much more active this year, hopefully fighting five or six times.
Sarabia, 16-27-9 (10), is a much more experienced fighter who has gone the distance recently in battles with Yhonny Perez, Carlos Ivan Velasquez and Mikey Garcia.
Jesus fully understands this will be a very tough test for him, but I think he’s prepared well.”
The Quiet Cannon is located at 901 N. Via San Clemente in Montebello. Advance tickets can be obtained by calling 323-816-6200 or 323-781-4871.
