Boxing News: Oscar Valdez returns May 20 » July 5, 2023 – Fight News
Former two-time world champion Oscar Valdez will be returning to the ring on May 20th on the undercard of Vassily Lomachenko vs. Devin Haney at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
Manager Frank Espinoza confirmed the date for the Nogales, Sonora native. “Once Oscar get past his next opponent in May, he will most likely face world champion Emmanuel Navarrete for the 130 pound title,” Espinoza affirmed. “That fight will take place in August or September.”
Other Espinoza fighters scheduled in upcoming fights include:
Raul Curiel, “12-0” the current NABF 147 Pound champion and ranked number 10 in the world will be fighting on the undercard
of the Vergil Ortiz headlined card on April 29th in Dallas, Texas.
On April 1st in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Joet Gonzalez will be facing Jose Enrique Vivas at the Hard Rock Hotel as part of a co-main event to be aired on ESPN.
Espinoza’s much talked about new prospect, Ricardo “Ricky” Ruvalcaba who has a record of 7 and 0 with 6 knockouts will be fighting on March 25th as part of the Ramirez vs. Comey card in Fresno, California at the Savsmart Center.
Rubalcava, a 22-year-old six-foot super lightweight is considered an up-and-coming hot prospect. “The kid is tall, has long arms, has a huge fan base and can punch,” manager Espinoza stated. “I’m very excited about Ricky’s future. I truly believe he will be a champion someday.”
Jeremiah Nakathila would be a fun fight on that card for Valdez.
I will be in Vegas but not to see this.
Rubalcava is 6ft and has the potential to be a threat at 135. Its time they put him in a step up fight to see what he has.

UFC news: Erin Blanchfield gives update on next fight, title hopes – MMA Junkie
Erin Blanchfield patiently awaits her next UFC assignment.
Although it’s not totally clear what that will be, Blanchfield (12-1 MMA, 6-0 UFC) assumes an important matchup with Manon Fiorot (11-1 MMA, 6-0 UFC) is likely. The two flyweight combatants have established themselves as top contenders in a division that awaits a championship rematch between champion Alexa Grasso and former champion Valentina Shevchenko while they both recover from injury.
“Yeah, it’s definitely stalling,” Blanchfield recently said during an online live stream for digital wallet platform HUMBL. “I feel like I’ve had a couple No. 1 contender fights now. But you know, I’m still pretty young and gained valuable experience in those fights. … Whether it’s an interim or not, I’ll beat (Fiorot), and then I should definitely get a title next.”
Although UFC CEO Dana White has indicated it’s next, no timeline has been revealed for Grasso (16-3-1 MMA, 8-3-1 UFC) vs. Shevchenko (23-4-1 MMA, 12-3-1 UFC). Shevchenko had hand surgery in mid-September. Coincidentally, Grasso underwent hand surgery in early October.
Should there be further delays, Blanchfield wouldn’t mind seeing an interim title implemented. She’s healthy and ready to go, following a slight nasal fracture suffered in a unanimous decision win over Taila Santos in August.
“I haven’t been told about that yet,” Blanchfield said. I would definitely push for that. That’s something I’d definitely be interested in. I’m not sure when Valentina and Alexa are going to be ready to fight again. I know I think they’re on a similar timeline in their recovery. I would hope that if it ends up being longer, they’d have me and Manon fight for an interim.”

2 dead after fight outside Sacramento County bar leads to shooting – CBS News
Watch CBS News
By Brandon Downs, Cecilio Padilla
/ CBS Sacramento
SACRAMENTO COUNTY – Two men died after they were shot outside of a bar in Sacramento County early Sunday morning, the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office said.
Deputies responded to Sacto By Night at 7121 Governors Circle at about 1:45 a.m.
A group of people who were leaving the bar got into a fight outside, leading to a shooting, deputies said.
The victims, who were two men, died at the scene, deputies said. One of them was the owner of the bar.
Investigators with the sheriff’s office believe a group of gang members who initially refused to leave the nightclub at closing is at the center of the incident. Those gang members apparently got involved in a fight in the parking lot, investigators said, with the suspected shooter being one of those gang members.
Witnesses described a white vehicle that took off from the scene. Deputies said the CHP located a vehicle matching the description and detained four people from that vehicle.
The people detained have since been identified as being allegedly involved in the shooting. Several guns have been recovered.
According to the sheriff’s office, the names of the suspects will be released once homicide and related charges are filed.
Brandon comes to CBS13 from Action News Now (KHSL/KNVN) in Chico where he spent two years as the Digital Content Manager.
