The 2024 season of boxing’s rapidly growing sensation, Wednesday Night Fights, is set to explode with a super lightweight clash featuring two unbeaten warriors: Luis Feliciano and Mykquan Williams. The headline fight, a ten-round tussle, sees Milwaukee’s own Feliciano face off against Connecticut’s Williams at the ProBox Event Center in Plant City, Florida, on January 17. This electrifying encounter will reach fans worldwide via ProBox TV’s global broadcast.
Luis Feliciano (17-0, 8 KOs), after a comparatively subdued 2023 marked by a lone unanimous decision victory over Clarence Booth in Milwaukee, is ready to raise the stakes. The former national amateur champion, who previously outpointed Alejandro Frias Rodriguez and Hector Colin, is on the hunt for his first knockout triumph since his victory over Fernando Carcamo four and a half years ago.
Mykquan Williams (19-0-2, 8 KOs) had a similarly low-key 2023. At 25, Williams found himself deadlocked in a majority decision draw against Paulo Cesar Galdino at the Turning Stone Resort and Casino in Verona, New York. Earlier in the year, he secured a ten-round decision win over Clarence Booth in Manhattan, NY, adding another notch to his unbeaten record.
The evening’s co-main event promises to be an explosive affair. Knockout specialists Freudis Rojas (12-0, 11 KOs) and Cristian Baez (19-3, 17 KOs) are set to collide in the welterweight division. Rojas, hailing from Las Vegas, is coming off a comprehensive points victory over Saul Bustos in September. His opponent, Baez, suffered a knockout loss in his August 2023 Plant City fight against Petros Ananyan but had previously secured a decision win over Kevin Johnson in Las Vegas.
In a super featherweight bout, Puerto Rico’s Jaycob Gomez (8-0-1, 5 KOs) will go head-to-head with Ezequiel Borrero (6-0, 2 KOs) of Vegas over eight rounds. Gomez enters the ring riding the momentum of back-to-back WNF victories against Robenilson Vieira de Jesus and Juan Antonio Lopez. Borrero, fresh from a unanimous decision win over Carlos Rosario on ProBox TV, is looking to maintain his unbeaten streak.
