Puerto Rico’s unified WBA, WBO, and Ring magazine minimumweight champion Oscar “El Pupilo” Collazo (12-0, 9 KOs) will defend his titles against Jayson “Striker” Vayson (14-1-1, 8 KOs) of the Philippines in headlining Saturday September 20 at the Fantasy Springs Casino Events Center in Indio, California live on DAZN.
“I want to thank Golden Boy Promotions and Miguel Cotto Promotions for giving me this opportunity to shine and defend my unified titles on September 20 in Indio, California, against a tough Filipino fighter, Jayson Vayson,” said Oscar Collazo. “All of my fans—Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, Americans, everyone in Southern California—need to show up at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino. It will be the perfect opportunity to dazzle and represent Puerto Rico on such a big platform. We will enter the ring very prepared, with a lot of boxing IQ. We know Vayson is a great fighter and that he will be hungry to dethrone me, but he won’t be able to, because I have worked hard to defend what is mine and represent my island with pride.”
“I want to thank everyone who was able to make this happen,” said Jayson Vayson. “I am a fighter of few words, but I am ready to show the world that I am the best and am deserving of this opportunity. I will shock the world and represent the Philippines with pride!”
“We’re back in the Coachella Valley, and this time, Golden Boy is bringing the heat with a barnburner of a card,” said Chairman and CEO Oscar De La Hoya. “This action-packed doubleheader features two history-making Golden Boy fighters, Oscar Collazo and Gabriela Fundora, defending their unified and undisputed world titles against mandatory challengers. The undercard will be stacked with the next generation of Golden Boy stars. You won’t want to miss it.”
Coachella Valley's undisputed world champion Gabriela “Sweet Poison” Fundora (16-0, 8 KOs) makes her homecoming as she makes her third defense of her WBA, WBC, WBO, IBF and Ring Magazine World Titles against Ayelén “Piru” Granadino (12-2-4, 1 KO) of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
“I’m staying 100% focused on defending my belts,” said Gabriela Fundora. “Our immediate teamwork’s intelligent planning and dedicated commitment is the result of our reality.”
“Nothing is free, I have worked very hard to get here,” said Ayelén Granadino. “After I beat Micaela Milagros Lujan in a final elimination for the WBA title, I knew my time had come and I am preparing accordingly. Gabriela Fundora is a great fighter, and I respect her until we get in the ring. I can’t wait to bring the four championship belts back to Argentina with me.”
More information on the card coming soon.
