Vasquez, Flores Co-Headline Fallon Rural Rumble 2017

ByBoxing Press 24/07/2017

The City of Fallon and Let’s Get It On Promotions are pleased to announce the tenth annual ‘Rural Rumble’. The August 12 fight card will feature Reno’s Oscar “Chapito” Vasquez (13-1), and Gabriel Flores (2-0) of Stockton, CA.

Oscar “Chapito” Vasquez, who was recently ranked #15 flyweight in the world by the WBO, is coming off of a dominant unanimous decision victory over Armando Vasquez in June.

He looks to further his world title campaign against veteran Javier Gallo (24-13-1), who is coming off of an impressive upset split decision victory over Jose Salgado in April. Vasquez versus Gallo is scheduled for ten rounds.

The undefeated, exciting, and youngest-ever signed Top Rank Inc. boxer Gabriel Flores makes his return to Northern Nevada at this year’s Rural Rumble. In his professional debut on May 5, Flores delighted the Reno fight fans by impressively knocking out Devon Jones. On June 30, he scored his second consecutive KO over Jahaziel Vasquez in Texas. .

Four other bouts are scheduled for August 12 in Fallon. Carson City’s own Diego Elizondo will be making his anticipated professional debut in a four-round lightweight fight. After impressing the boxing fans in Fallon last year, undefeated Northern California favorite Pedro Moreno (6-0) returns to the 2017 Rural Rumble in a lightweight bout.

Reno Jr.-flyweight, Santos Vasquez, looks to continue his third win in a row in a six-round bout. And finally, Reno bantamweight Alec McGee (2-1) looks to get back into the win column as he, too, returns to Fallon for the 2017 Rural Rumble in a four round scrap.

All bouts subject to change.

Tickets are available now. $20 GA ($25 at gate), $30 ($35 at gate) floor seating, and $500 VIP tables are available. Tickets and tables can be purchased by calling (775) 423 4556. Find all information at Fallonfights.com

  • Two fights this weekend 03/11/2026
    Another clash unnecessarily created by promoters. I hate when they do this and should have done it another week. Which is better? Main card: Chris Billam-Smith v Cheavon Clarke (cruiserweight) Denzel Bentley v Shane Mosley Jr (middleweight) Damazion Vanhouter v Ivan Balaz (heavyweight) Sam Hickey v Troy Coleman (middleweight) Kayla Allen v Julia Igel (light- […]
  • Anybody else here found Moorer v Botha a very good fight? 02/11/2026
    For some reason, this obscure heavyweight title fight ranks up there as one of my favourite fights… anybody else here remember seeing it? It does not rank up there with one of the classics, but it had its great moments and an enjoyable watch.MOORER v BOTHA (TKO) NOV 9th 1996 2 posts - 2 participants Read full topic […]
  • Usyk v Benavidez 01/11/2026
    The rumour is that the heavyweight champion Usyk is willing to go down to cruiserweight and face David Benavedez for the undisputed title! Usyk confirmed the fight yesterday. This is a crazy move for him because it has Roy Jones car crash all over it. Also what about poor Jai Opetia. Boxing is going crazy. 16 posts - 8 participants Read full topic […]
  • Daniel Dubois v Joseph Parker 30/10/2026
    These two could face one another 30th January 2027. They were due to face one another before Dubois pulled out at the last minute. Parker will not have fought in 15 months since he lost to Fabio Wardley and was banned for using cocaine. Dubois will be fighting after destroying Wardley this month so he is keeping very busy. Dubois would be better waiting for […]
  • Adam Azim v Gabriel Gollaz 30/10/2026
    British light-welterweight Adam Azim is set to face Gabriel Gollaz Valenzuela at London’s Copper Box on 4 December. Azim last fought in May when he stopped Steve Claggett in three rounds at Wembley Arena live on BBC Two. The 24-year-old is undefeated in 15 professional fights, winning 12 by stoppage, while Mexico’s Valenzuela holds a record of 32 wins, five […]

  • Haney does not want to fight Shakur 23/10/2026
    I’ve seen their sparring videos on YouTube. And I can see why Haney is having all of this hullabaloo before signing on to fight Shakur Stevenson. He knows he can’t beat Shakur. Plus, coming off of that ass-whipping he got from Ryan Garcia, steroid claims aside, he knows Shakur will cook him and he does not want to have another legitimate loss on his record. […]
  • Ryan Garcia v Floyd Mayweather? 23/10/2026
    Could this silly fight happen? A 50 year old who has not fought since 2017 taking on a young peak welterweight. Surely it can’t happen. Conor Benn was bad but this is awful. 4 posts - 4 participants Read full topic […]
  • Why did we believe Morrison would have beaten Mercer? 22/10/2026
    Why was anyone giving Tommy Morrison a chance in that fight? That fight went the way it was supposed to go, with Ray Mercer winning even though that ko was probably one of the most brutal you would ever see in boxing. Check the facts, Mercer beat Morrison in the amateurs. Handily as well. Mercer was the champion… Mercer was the heavy favorite. 3 posts - 2 pa […]
  • I just realize how scared Spinks was ahead of his fight against Tyson 22/10/2026
    Did you guys stop to appreciate how frightened Spinks was? Even as a trained fighter like himself, you could see the visible fear in his eyes. He knew he stood no chance of winning. He also was probably thinking about how bad those punches were going to hurt. lolol… I could swear I saw him trembling in the ring when Tyson’s music came on and started his walk […]
