This Wednesday, the boxing community is set to witness a fiery encounter between two determined lightweights. Joseph Adorno, with a record of 18-3-2 and 15 knockouts, is stepping on the scales at 135lbs, ready to throw down in what’s billed as a decisive 10-round main event. Facing him across the ring is Nicholas Walters, the former featherweight champ, boasting a formidable 28-1-1, with 22 KOs, also hitting the mark at 135lbs.
Adorno is looking to turn the tide following a recent rough patch that saw him lose two fights, only to bounce back with a fifth-round stoppage victory against Jonathan Perez. Meanwhile, Walters, at 38, is back with a vengeance, stacking up two consecutive wins after a long hiatus post his bout against Vasyl Lomachenko.
After a staggering defeat on ShoBox: The Next Generation in 2022, Starling Castillo has clawed his way back into the ring’s spotlight. Now, he’s set to clash with Jesus Saracho in a make-or-break bout on ProBox TV’s Wednesday Night Fights.
Castillo, with a record of 18-1-1 and 13 KOs, felt the sting of defeat against Otar Eranosyan, pushing him to overhaul his corner by bringing in Bob Santos, a seasoned mentor known for sculpting champions. This loss wasn’t just a setback; it was a wake-up call, igniting a fierce resolve within him.
At 28, Castillo is hitting his stride, eyeing a surge to the summit of the super lightweight division. On the flip side, Saracho, younger at 22 and holding a record of 13-1-1 with 11 KOs, isn’t to be underestimated. But for Castillo, this isn’t just another fight; it’s a chance to claim his place among the division’s elites, to prove he’s more than just a contender.
Castillo’s eyes gleam at the mention of the super lightweight’s rich tapestry of warriors—Ryan Garcia, Devin Haney, Teofimo Lopez. These aren’t just opponents; they’re gateways to glory, to proving he belongs in the pantheon of boxing legends.
While his sights are set on the division’s titans, Castillo isn’t glancing past Saracho. The shadow of his ShoBox fall reminds him: every fight’s a stepping stone, a test of mettle.
Wednesday Night Fights throws open its doors globally via ProBoxTV.com, with bilingual commentary from the likes of ring legends Paulie Malignaggi, Chris Algieri, and Juan Manuel Marquez.
