July 7, 2026 – WBA No. 2- and WBC No. 4-ranked super bantamweight Ramon “Dinamita” Cardenas, 27-2 (15 KOs), of San Antonio, will face WBA No. 12-ranked Leonardo Carrillo, 20-1-1 (9 KOs), of Panama City, in one of three new 10-round televised fights on ProBoxTV’s live world championship broadcast (7:30 PM ET/4:30 PM PT), Saturday, August 29, from the Galen Center in Los Angeles.
Also added to The Contender Series portion of the show will be a 10-round lightweight battle between IBF No. 10- and WBA No. 14-ranked Luis “Koreano” Torres Valenzuela, 22-1 (13 KOs), and Jordan “Shortdog” White, 20-2 (12 KOs).
Plus Filipino knockout artist Weljon Mindoro, 17-0-1 (16 KOs), will take on three-time world title challenger Carlos Ocampo, 38-4, 26 KOs, of Mexico.
All three additional fights will be televised in support of WBC interim world super-middleweight champion Lester Martinez defending his interim title for the first time against WBC No. 3- and IBF No. 13-ranked Luka “The Thunder” Plantic in the night’s 12-round main event.
WBA No. 4-, WBC No. 10-, IBF No. 9-, and WBO No. 15-ranked light-heavyweight Najee Lopez, 16-0 (13 KOs), takes on WBA No. 9-ranked Colombian Juan Carrillo, 15-0 (11 KOs), in the co-featured bout.
Tickets for Martinez vs. Plantic will be available for purchase on July 15.
Ramon Cardenas rose to prominence in May of last year by putting up a brave stand while challenging unified world super-bantamweight champion, Naoya Inoue. Cardenas was able to drop Inoue in round two before being dropped in round seven and stopped in round eight. 30-year-old Cardenas was last seen knocking out Mexico’s Erik Robles with one punch in five rounds in December of last year. It was Cardenas’ fourth appearance on ProBoxTV.
Leonardo Carrillo, originally from El Copey, Colombia, is an 11-year professional who will be making his United States fighting debut that night. Carrillo’s only loss came to WBA No. 1-ranked junior featherweight Mukhammad Shekhov by unanimous decision in 2023. 33-year-old Carrillo has won three consecutive fights since, most recently, a unanimous 10-round decision over then 15-3-1 Luis Robles Pacheco in May 2025.
Martinez vs. Plantic is presented by ProBox Promotions.
