Some rivalries refuse to die after one fight. UCA Super Super Heavyweights #3 Ismael Alvarez representing the Fresno Police Dept and #8 Beto Ortiz, CDCR – California Health Care Facility are stepping back into the fire with unfinished business still hanging over them.
Their first clash at last year’s NorCal Battle of the Badges saw Alvarez hand Ortiz the first loss. Both fighters left the ring believing they had more to prove. Neither man felt he showed his best version and ever since that night, the rematch has been inevitable.
Ortiz returns fueled by pride and revenge, determined to rewrite the story and force his way back into the championship picture. Alvarez has no intention of letting that happen. He is confident, dangerous, and riding momentum of his own and is looking to prove the first victory was no accident and establish himself as one of the most serious threats in the division.
This matchup has all the ingredients to steal the show.
The Central California Battle of the Badges “Unfinished Business” takes over Fresno City College on Saturday, June 27, 2026. Doors open at 4 PM. First bell Rings at 6 PM.
