Anthony Olascuaga: record, next fight and profile →


Ed Pereira explains that free tickets is the key to success ahead of his July 11 event at the Civic Center in San Francisco

Andy Dominguez, who will face WBO flyweight titleholder Anthony Olascuaga on July 11 in San Francisco, aims to make a dream come true while fighting in a city that reminds him of home.

Ed Pereira hopes his bold outdoor event – replete with yachts, grand entrances and goals of breaking attendance records – helps others catch the boxing bug.

Anthony Olascuaga went from walking Junto Nakatani to the ring in front of 55,000 fans to striding into his own summertime bout whose crowd could double that figure.

The large effort to draw more than 100,000 spectators to a mostly free boxing event in San Francisco on July 11 will be anchored by one of boxing’s smallest champions.

“Getting there is easy,” says Olascuaga's coach Rudy Hernandez. “Staying there is even harder.”

Donaire will face Riku Masuda in a title eliminator, while Olascuaga will defend his belt against Jukiya Iimura. Also on this show: Knockout CP Freshmart vs. Shokichi Iwata, and Ryusei Matsumoto vs. Yuni Takada II.

BoxingScene has confirmed that Puerto Rico’s Juan Carlos Camacho, was issued a nine-month suspension by the Nevada State Athletic Commission for violation of the state’s substance abuse policy.

Anthony Olascuaga retained his WBO 112lbs title and remained America's most active titlist after a 4th round stoppage of Taku Kuwahara in Tokyo.
