A new UCA Champion will be crowned under the lights at the Valley Strong Ballpark in Visalia, CA, on Saturday, April 25, 2026. The UCA Welterweight Championship title will be on the line when Richard Ruiz, proudly representing the Santa Monica Police Department, steps into hostile territory to face hometown favorite Jose Gallardo, from the Visalia Fire Department. Both men bring polished skills, high ring IQ, and experience that will turn this championship fight into a tactical war. Neither fighter is coming to test the waters. They are coming to seize the moment, impose their will, and walk out of the ring with the belt around their waist. When the final bell rings and the fighters meet in the center ring, only one will leave as a champion. Yet both warriors will exit stronger, respected, and forever linked by the battle they shared. Don’t miss this one.
