Yesterday we competed at the Miklo Arnold Invitational in Hillsboro, OR. We only had Aaron Montes on deck up against a game opponent from California, and after 3 hard fought rounds, we were awarded the victory! Much respect to our opponent and his team, as it was down to the wire the entire match. Special thanks to Miklo, Jason, and their family for hosting a great event. Onto the next one, Let’s go Rip City!🥊

Yesterday we came to compete at Toe 2 Toe’s Never Give Up show in Salem, Oregon, with Enoc, Aaron, Leo, and Abdulla lined up with matches. All four fought hard and left with their hands raised, leaving us undefeated for the night. Very proud of the continued hard work that’s put in by our team, we’re happy to see it pay off.

Special shout out to Abdulla for getting his first win in his amateur career, and Aaron for coming out on top as the main event after going to war with his opponent.

Huge thanks to Adam Navarro and Toe 2 Toe Boxing for the event, we’re excited for the next one🥊
