Future Champions

The Jr. Middleweight and Middleweight divisions are perhaps the most talent rich divisions right now. With fighters like Manning, LASD, Martinez, Avenal PD, Coca, CDCR, Montano, LAPD, Mirage, LAPD, McNamara, ABC, Vargas, Avenal PD, Vega, Orange Co. SD, Rodriguez, Santa Monica FD, Ramirez, LASD, Gutierrez, Orange City FD and Vasquez, LASD it’s safe to say the next state champion will be one of these fighters.  However, with both divisions so deep in talent once a champion emerges the belt may be switching hands quite a bit. The Fight for Life event November 22, 2013 features some of the top Jr. Middleweights and Middleweights. On February 1st, the SoCal Battle of the Badges Main Event will feature #1 ranked Jr. Middleweight Dustin Rodriguez, Santa Monica Fire Dept. taking on #1 ranked Middleweight Carlos Vega, Orange Co. Sheriff Dept. in a Title Eliminator. The Central California Battle of the Badges April 19th, 2014 will feature Avenal Police Dept.’s 2nd ranked DJ Vargas and 5th ranked Chris Martinez vs. TBA. One more quality win for any of these fighters and they will be fighting for the State Title.
