The undefeated knockout sensation, Cain Sandoval of Sacramento, CA, is ready to set foot in the iconic Madison Square Garden. He will face Brooklyn’s very own seasoned fighter, Wesley ‘El Bongocero’ Ferrer, in an exciting eight-round lightweight bout. This fight serves as a lead-up to the main event showdown between ‘King’ Callum Walsh and Ismael Villarreal and will be broadcasted globally on UFC FIGHT PASS.
Tom Loeffler, the renowned promoter, shared his enthusiasm, “The excitement for the November 9th event just scaled up. Cain Sandoval, with his jaw-dropping knockout streak, has been the talk of the West Coast. But Madison Square Garden is the ultimate test for any boxer. Sandoval’s encounter with the seasoned hometown hero Wesley Ferrer is bound to be the toughest battle in his nascent career.”
Sandoval, 21, will be making his debut on the East Coast. The young prodigy, known for his electrifying knockout power, has been the darling of California’s boxing enthusiasts since he began his professional journey two years back. His most recent accomplishment was a spectacular sixth-round knockout victory against Jose Marruffo on July 22, 2023, at the Chumash Casino in Santa Ynez, CA. November 9 will mark Sandoval’s fourth ring appearance this year.
The 31-year-old Ferrer is no stranger to the ring. Since turning pro in 2013, he has been a regular face at New York City’s fight events. His impressive resume boasts battles against top contenders like Will Madera, Steven Ortiz, and Larry Fryers. Ferrer is back in action after a dominating unanimous decision win over Jayson Velez, a former world title challenger, in August 2022.
