SoCal Battle of the Badges matchups to keep an eye on tonight.

The first one is a clash between the Masters UCA #1 ranked Jr Middleweight Ancel Patricio, Riverside Sheriff’s Dept vs 2nd ranked Babek Zadseta, CDCR – Chino State Prison. This will be a Repeat or Revenge matchup. Patricio won the first meeting 7 years ago by split decision.

7. Widely considered as one of the best in the game. The UCA 2 Division Champion Chris Dubiansky, Camp Pendleton Fire Dept will take on the Masters UCA Heavyweight Champion James Dorris, International Rescue Committee in a Non-title fight.  Despite the height, age and physical differences, this is an intriguing style match-up.

An interesting guest is in attendance. The former UCA Jr Middleweight Champion Jesse Zuñiga, Hemet Police Dept. I’m sure he will have a close eye on the UCA Jr Middleweight Championship title fight, a belt he once owned.

The SoCal Battle of the Badges returned to the Pechanga Casino and Resort Saturday June 3, 2023 for an explosive night of boxing.

UCA Lightweight Fight
Krystle Jordan-Le, San Diego Police Dept vs Katrina Aveno. Jordan-Le made her ring debut against a very skilled fighter. She showed good fundamentals and composure in her first fight. Jordan-Le would have her moments throughout the fight but Aveno was too sharp and too experienced for the new fighter. The fight would go the distance and Aveno would pick up the unanimous division win.

UCA Heavyweight Fight
James Dorris, IRC vs Chris Dubiansky, Camp Pendleton Fire Dept. Dubiansky is known as a quick starter and when the bell rang the high volume puncher zeroed in on his target. Dorris may have been caught off guard or expected a feel out period.  Once Dubiansky found his range he let the punches fly. The first combination landed by the double champ forced the referee to step in and give Dorris a standing 10 count. Dubiansky smelled blood and went in for the kill. He threw another flurry of punches that would send Dorris to the canvas. The referee stepped in and stopped the contest halfway through the 1st round. Dubiansky winner by 1st rd TKO.

UCA Light Heavyweight Fight
2nd ranked Kevin Fredrick, Cal Fire San Diego vs Corey Flores. The undefeated Fredrick had a lot of hype entering this fight. If he could  sneak past the crafty Flores he would position himself for a title fight. Fredrick came out in the first round blazing. He couldn’t miss, landing everything he threw. Fredrick would force the referee to give Flores 2 standing 10 counts in the 1st round.

What a round for Fredrick, the hype is real.  When Flores came out for the 2nd round he was a different fighter. He found his rhythm, he used a variety of punches and movement to keep Fredrick guessing on what was coming next. Flores would return the favor and score 2 standing 10 counts of his own in the 2nd rd. One round a piece going into the 3rd. Half way through the 3rd round Fredrick showed signs of slowing down.  Before the round ended Flores would score another standing 10 count and that would seal the win. Flores winner by decision.

Masters UCA Welterweight Title Fight 3rd ranked Denise Guerrero, San Bernardino Police Dept vs #1 ranked Elise Garcia, Long Beach Police Dept. This was an all action fight from bell to bell between two evenly matched fighters. Guerrero and Garcia showed great skills using the entire ring to set up attacks. They showed great balance and footwork while pivoting, countering and slipping punches. When the final bell sounded, Garcia earned her win on the scorecards with her lead right crosses, length and distance control.  

And The New….Masters UCA Welterweight Champion Elise Garcia, Long Beach Police Dept.

UCA Jr Middleweight Fight
3rd ranked Kellen Kramer, Bell Gardens Police Dept vs Anthony Parks. Kramer and Parks are known for being involved in action packed fights. This fight would be no different. These warriors battled from bell to bell.  This was a tightly contested three-round affair that left the judges divided. Ultimately, Parks had his hand raised after securing a split decision win.

UCA Jr Middleweight Title Fight
2nd ranked Dylan Hicks, LASD vs Aidan Nolasco, Long Beach Police Dept. Nolasco put on an absolutely masterful performance defeating Hicks by 3rd round TKO. It has been said, once you become a champion you instantly become a better fighter.  This is certainly true for Nolasco. On April 15, 2023 Nolasco defeated Manuel Maldonado, Burbank Police Dept by split decision to capture the UCA Jr Middleweight title. 49 days later Nolasco is back in the ring defending his title against Hicks,

Since suffering his first and only loss to the undefeated UCA #1 ranked Middleweight Chad Madrid, Santa Monica Police Dept Nolasco has reeled off four straight wins that include, #4 Kramer, #3 Hicks, and #2 Maldonado. Needless to say that is a murderous row of fighters Nolasco has faced in his 5 fight career.

What is next for Aidan Nolasco? It’s obvious the fight most boxing fans want to see is Nolasco vs the former champion #1 ranked Jesse Zuniga, Hemet Police Dept.  Details are still being worked out for a date and location for this highly anticipated matchup.

Masters UCA Welterweight Fight
#2 Bakak Izadeseta, CDCR – Chino State Prison vs #1 Ancel Patricio, Riverside Sheriff’s Office.  More often than not in a rematch the fighter who won the first time around scores another victory.  Not in this case, after 7 years Zadseta was able to exact sweet revenge over Patricio by 2nd  rd TKO.
