McEwan vs. Perez, a ten round middleweight bout and Huerta vs. Arias, a six-round featherweight bout headline a night of world-class professional boxing presented by Golden Boy Promotions in association with Ringside Ticket Inc. and sponsored by Cerveza Tecate.  TeleFutura’s “Sólo Boxeo Tecate” will be broadcast at 11:30pm ET / PT (10:30pm CT).

A native of Edinburgh, Scotland, 28-year-old Craig McEwan (18-0, 10 KO’s) has established himself as one of the best prospects to emerge from the United Kingdom in years and now he’s looking forward to the next step in his career.  Owner of wins over Brian Vera, Darnell Boone and James Parison, the Freddie Roach trained McEwan plans on making Danny Perez the next name on his resume of vanquished foes on July 23.

In his 14-year career, Carlsbad, California’s Danny “Dynamite” Perez (34-7, 17 KO’s) has been in with some of the best fighters in the game including highly touted Cuban prospect Erislandy Lara and former World Champion Antonio Margarito (twice) who he sent to the canvas in a razor thin split decision loss in their first fight.  Winner of three of his last five bouts, Perez is eager to introduce McEwan to the next level of middleweight boxing.

The pride of Paramount, California, 23-year old Charles Huerta (13-1, 7 KO’s), has bounced back nicely since losing his first pro bout last July, and with back-to-back wins over Rodrigo Aranda and Guadalupe DeLeon, he’s back on his way to the top.  Mexicali, Baja California Mexico’s Jonathan Arias (15-5, 8 KO’s) is looking to right his own ship later this month, and he’s got his sights set on making Huerta the first win on his comeback.

Also in action this Friday night will be undefeated Florida knockout artist Keith Thurman (12-0, 11 KO’s) who puts his perfect record on the line against fellow unbeaten Stalinn Lopez (7-0, 3 KO’s) in an eight round welterweight contest.

The hits just keep on coming, as Roger Mayweather protégé Dion Savage (8-0, 5 KO’s) comes into town from Flint, Michigan to take on veteran competitor Demetrius Davis (20-22-5, 8 KO’s) in a six round super middleweight fight, and highly-touted Las Vegas welterweight Anthony Martinez (3-0, 3 KO’s) risks his “0” against Lakewood, California’s Nicholaus Brannies (1-5) in a four round bout.

Opening the show will be a four round middleweight fight between power punching Minnesotan Cerresso Fort (9-0, 8 KO’s) and Sacramento’s Steven Macomber (3-8-1).
