Gomez, a rising star under Boxlab Promotions, is looking to extend his unbeaten streak in front of his home state fans and further solidify his name as one to watch in the super featherweight division. Gonzalez, a seasoned veteran known for his durability and experience, presents a challenging test for the young prospect, but Gomez is confident he will deliver an impressive performance.

"Gonzalez is a veteran who’s been in the ring with a lot of tough guys, and I know he’ll bring that experience with him,” said Gomez. “I’ve been preparing for a hard fight, but I’m also ready to put on a show. I want to make sure everyone watching knows my name after this fight. I’m not just looking for a win—I’m looking to end this fight by knockout."

"Roberto Gomez is an exceptional talent, and every time he steps into the ring, he shows something special,’ said Amaury Piedra, president of Boxlab Promotions. :We’re thrilled to have him as part of the Boxlab family, and we believe he has what it takes to become a real contender in the super featherweight division. This fight against Gonzalez is another milestone in his journey, and we’re confident he’ll rise to the challenge.”

Gomez will be fighting in front of his home state fans for the second time this year and is expected to have strong support from family and friends.

"Fighting in front of the Florida fans means everything to me,” concluded Gomez. “I’m from Dade City, so I’ll have a lot of family and friends in the crowd. I’m going to feed off their energy and give them something to cheer about. Every fight is a chance to show what I can do, and I plan on showing that I have the skills to be one of the best in this division. This is the kind of night where memories are made, and I plan to leave a lasting impression. I want people to walk away from this fight talking about me.”
