*LOS ANGELES *(July 7, 2017) Golden Boy Promotions today announced it has
re-signed super featherweight contender *Charles Huerta* (19-5, 12 KOs) to
a multi-fight promotional contract. Fighting out of Paramount, CA, Huerta,
30, was last seen scoring a sensational third round knockout over *Ivan
“Striker” Delgado* (11-1-1, 4 KOs) to the shock of the sold-out Belasco
Theater on the April 14 edition of *LA FIGHT CLUB* televised live on
Estrella TV’s *Boxeo Estelar*. Huerta will make his next appearance as the
main event for an eight-round super featherweight fight on the upcoming
Friday, August 10th *LA FIGHT CLUB* show from the Belasco Theater and
airing live on Estrella TV’s *Boxeo Estelar.*
“I am very thankful to be re-signing with Golden Boy Promotions. Growing
up, I idolized Oscar De La Hoya and watched all of his fights, so it’s a
dream come true to fight under his banner,” said Huerta. “There is nothing
like boxing in SoCal, and I look forward to seeing all of the local fight
fans come out to see me in more shows.”
“After witnessing Huerta’s last fight, it’s clear he is a crowd-pleasing
fighter in the ring,” said Golden Boy Promotions Chairman and CEO Oscar De
La Hoya. “Huerta brings out the hardcore South LA boxing fans, and we can’t
wait to watch him in more action-packed, turf war showdowns.”
Making his professional debut at 21, Huerta has been a long-time fight
veteran to the Southern California boxing scene, having fought 22
professional local bouts in his nearly decade-long career. Known for taking
on SoCal prospects and contenders, Huerta has squared off with the likes of
fan favorites Christopher “S.D. Kid” Martin, Carlos “The Solution” Morales
and Ivan “Striker” Delgado in some of his most memorable showdowns.
