Rafael “Listo” Gaitan (5-0-1,3ko) fighting out of Grand Prairie, Texas in a 6 round Light Heavyweight contest against 25 fight veteran Dennis Williams (7-14-1,4ko) out of Monroe, Louisiana. At 21 years old, Listo has already found a niche in the local fight scene receiving support from sponsors and fight fans in the form of tickets sold. That foundation was built from the ground as an amateur fighting and winning numerous awards and championships including 7x Golden Gloves, Jr Olympic Champion,3x Texas State Champion, and a National Gold, Silver, and Bronze Medalist before turning pro in late 2017.As a Garcia Promotions fighter he headlined the last Southern Junction card going 6 full rounds as a professional for the first time as he drew against Colombian veteran Neller Obregon in November. Williams is riding a 2-fight winning streak while remaining active with a 5 fight 2019. He comes in fresh off a 1st round knockout over 45-win veteran Fred Ladd just a few weeks ago. He should prove to be a good test for Gaitan having only been stopped twice in his 22-fight career.
All in all, a potential night of great fireworks looks to line up smoothly showcasing the hard effort that Garcia Promotions and SWEAT Boxing Gym have put into promoting some of the metroplexes best young talent. Boxing fans can expect surprises, giveaways, guest appearances, music, food, and drink while being entertained with the glory of those fighting within the ropes.
