Ariana Carrasco has signed a long-term management agreement with Trifon Petrov and Imperial Boxing.
Carrasco started boxing at age 12 and had over 80 amateur fights. She had an impressive amateur career and won 12 national championships and was an international medalist while representing Team USA.
Under the management of Petrov, Ariana Carrasco reunites with former teammates of Team USA, such as Reina and Gabriela Tellez, Ivy Enriquez and USA Olympian, Rashida Ellis.
Carrasco is expected to make her professional debut in El Paso, TX in March on a card promoted by Kings Promotions.
“I’m super excited to be under the management of Trifon Petrov and I cannot wait to see what we do together in the years to come. I am very anxious to get in the ring and put my hard work on display”, said Carrasco.
At only 22 years old, Ariana is a US Army veteran. She served 4 years in the Army right after she graduated High School. While in the military, she continued to compete and win national titles.
“Ariana is an extremely talented boxer with incredible potential. I am thankful she trusted me to guide her as she makes the transition to the professional boxing world. I am looking forward to helping achieve her dreams of becoming a World Champion”, said Trifon Petrov.
Ariana trains at Dona Ana Boxing Gym in Las Cruces, New Mexico under her father Rene Carrasco.
