EL PASO, TX (June 4, 2026) – One of the most promising young talents in women's boxing is ready to begin the next chapter of her fighting career as amateur standout Kayla "The Truth" Gomez of El Paso, Texas, makes her highly anticipated professional debut on Friday, June 19, 2026, at Thunder Studios in Long Beach, California.
Gomez will face an opponent to be announced in a scheduled four-round super flyweight contest as part of MF Pro's inaugural United States event, "Pugilist Revolution," which will be televised live on DAZN.
After compiling an impressive amateur résumé, Gomez established herself as one of Team USA's top prospects by capturing the first-ever Junior Pan American Games female flyweight gold medal in 2021. Her historic achievement, combined with her relentless work ethic, technical skill, and competitive spirit, earned her recognition as one of the brightest young talents in amateur boxing.
As fight night approaches, Gomez says she is counting down the days until she can finally display her abilities on the professional stage. "I've been waiting for this moment my entire life. Every sacrifice, every early morning run, every hard sparring session and every amateur fight has led me to this opportunity. I'm excited, motivated, and ready to show everyone what I've been working on. The fans are going to see a fighter who's hungry, disciplined, and ready to make a statement from the very first bell."
Gomez believes her amateur experience has prepared her for the transition and is eager to demonstrate that her style is built for success in the professional ranks. "I've spent years developing my skills and learning every aspect of the sport. Now it's time to put everything together on a bigger stage. I want people to see the passion I bring into the ring and understand why they call me 'The Truth.' This debut is just the beginning, and I'm determined to make an impression that people won't forget."
With her professional debut drawing near, Gomez says training camp has been one of the most demanding and rewarding experiences of her career. "This training camp has been one of the hardest and most rewarding camps I've ever had. My team and I know how important this first professional fight is, so we've worked hard every single day. We've focused on getting in great shape and making sure I'm ready for whatever my opponent brings on fight night."
According to Gomez, the intensity of camp has only increased her confidence heading into June 19. "I've never felt more prepared. The work we've put in gives me confidence because I know I've earned this opportunity. Every day in camp has made me stronger, mentally and physically. I'm going into this fight knowing I've done everything possible to be ready for my professional debut."
While Gomez remains focused on the task at hand, she understands the significance of beginning her professional journey with a victory. "A win would mean everything because it would validate all the hard work that's gone into getting here. At the same time, I know this is only the first step. My goal is to build a successful career and eventually become a world champion."
Gomez views her debut as an opportunity to establish momentum and initiate herself to boxing fans around the world. "Winning on June 19 would give me a strong foundation to build on. It would show my promoter, fans, and everyone watching that I'm ready for this level. More importantly, it would be the first chapter in what I believe will be a long and successful professional career."
Making her professional debut on a globally recognized platform such as DAZN is an opportunity Gomez does not take lightly. "It's a huge blessing to make my pro debut on DAZN. Not every fighter gets the chance to perform in front of a national and international audience right away. Knowing that people from all over the world can tune in motivates me even more to put on a great performance."
Gomez plans to make the most of the exposure and hopes to leave a lasting impression on fans watching from home. "This is my opportunity to introduce myself to the boxing world. I want fans to see my skills, my heart, and my determination. When the fight is over, I want people talking about Kayla 'The Truth' Gomez and looking forward to seeing me compete again. That's the type of impression I plan to make on June 19."
