Press Release:
Nigerian heavyweight Efe Ajagba hopes to take a giant leap towards a title opportunity when faces upset-minded Australian Joe Goodall in the 10-round main event Saturday, Nov. 4 at Tahoe Blue Event Center in Lake Tahoe, Nevada. This will be the first boxing event at the venue, which opened earlier this month.
Ajagba and Goodall fought as amateurs, with Goodall earning a decision in the semifinals of the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland.
In the 10-round lightweight co-feature, Raymond “Danger” Muratalla takes on unbeaten Mexican banger Diego Torres.
The undercard will feature the Top Rank debut of heavyweight prospect Brandon Moore as well as an all-undefeated junior lightweight showdown between Henry Lebron and William Foster III.
Moore (12-0, 8 KOs) will take on Robert Simms (12-3-1, 3 KOs) in an eight-round fight. The Florida native fought six times in 2021, including a fourth-round stoppage over Mexican veteran Elvis Garcia and a six-round decision over renowned journeyman Terrell Jamal Woods. He returned from a nearly 15-month layoff in June to knock out Elijah McCall, son of former heavyweight world champion Oliver McCall, in the second round. Simms is coming off an eight-round unanimous decision win against then-unbeaten James McKenzie Morrison last October.
Lebron (18-0, 10 KOs) and Foster (16-0, 10 KOs) will collide in a 10-round junior welterweight clash. Lebron scored three impressive wins in 2022, a seventh-round TKO victory against Josec Ruiz and decision wins over Luis Lebron and Andy Vences. Lebron, from Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, went 10 rounds for the first time in his last outing, toppling Carlos Ramos by decision in June. Foster also had an exceptional 2022, as he tallied decision victories over then-undefeated Dominican Edwin De Los Santos and Philadelphia-born veteran Avery Sparrow. He heads into this fight following a ninth-round TKO over Misael Lopez earlier this month.
Heavyweight Antonio “El Gigante” Mireles (8-0, 7 KOs) will see action in a six-round battle against an opponent to be named. The 6-foot-9, 265-pound southpaw is coming off a hard-earned TKO win over Dajuan Calloway in August.
Rising Puerto Rican junior welterweight Omar Rosario (11-0, 3 KOs) returns to the ring in an eight-round tilt against Angel Rebollar (7-3, 3 KOs). Rosario heads into this contest following an eight-round decision win against Jan Carlos Rivera in June.
Unbeaten Mexican Olympian Lindolfo Delgado (18-0, 13 KOs) makes his third appearance of 2023 in an eight-round junior welterweight fight against Luis Hernandez Ramos (23-3, 20 KOs).
Former Team USA amateur standout Charlie Sheehy (7-0, 5 KOs) steps up against Jesus Vasquez (10-1, 2 KOs) in a six-round lightweight fight. Sheehy was last seen handing Kaylyn Alfred a one-punch TKO in July.
Undefeated middleweight Javier "Milwaukee Made" Martinez (8-0-1, 2 KOs) will take on Isaiah Wise (11-2-2, 6 KOs) in an eight-rounder.
Reno-born lightweight Christian Avalos (0-1-2) will make a home region appearance in a four-rounder.
