HOUSTON, Texas – October 3, 2024 – Red Owl Boxing returns Friday, October 4 with the next edition of the popular BOXFEST series, streaming live on DAZN globally in more than 200 territories and regions from the state-of-the-art “Owl’s Nest” in Houston. All fighters made weight ahead of the must-see event on Friday night.
BOXFEST XI begins around the world at 9 p.m. EST/8 p.m. CST and will feature five fights on the main card live on DAZN, which will be headlined by a battle of two welterweight veterans seeking retribution when Quinton Randall (14-2-1, 3 KOs) faces Janelson Bocachica (17-2-1, 11 KOs) in a ten-round fight. Randall and Bocachica have competed on several high-profile events and were both fast-rising prospects until each fighter suffered back-to-back losses. Randall, 34, got back in the win column in May, while Bocachica, 25, is coming off a no contest and seeking to get back on track in Houston next week.
In the co-main event, super middleweights Marquis Moore (11-1, 7 KOs) and Tipton Walker (9-0-1, 6 KOs) will square off in an eight-round fight. Both fighters are coming off TKO victories and an impressive performance on Red Owl Boxing’s global stage would propel them up the rankings at 154 pounds.
Also featured on the main card, one of boxing’s hottest prospects, Giovanni Marquez (10-0) returns to the BOXFEST series for the second time to take on Thomas Guillemette (8-2) in a dangerous six-round matchup at 140 pounds. The Houston-native has stacked up two impressive wins in 2024 including a gritty win over Jason Limon at the Owl’s Nest in May.
Rounding out the action on DAZN is a four-round rematch between Dayan Depestre (4-0-1, 3 KOs) and Trevon Smith (2-3, 1 KOs) who met a month ago in the Owl’s Nest onBOXFEST X when Depestre edged out Smith. The night will open the professional debut of Kumar Prescod who will take on Skyler Mauller (0-1) in a four-round light heavyweight fight.
Each BOXFEST event features three themes as part of the evening’s action - a fight that features an anticipated professional debut, the crowning moment for a rising prospect and fighters who look to get back on track in a moment of retribution. Learn more about Red Owl Boxing here.
