Former World Champion Angel Acosta To Face Angelino
Cordova As Main Event On April 6
Golden Boy Fight Night on DAZN will return on Thursday,
April 6 at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino with a special
headlining event featuring former World Champion Angel
“Tito” Acosta (23-3, 22 KOs) of San Juan, Puerto Rico. An
aggressive, forward-pressing Puerto Rican boxer with one of
the heaviest punches of his division, Acosta trains with
world renowned trainer Joel Diaz in the Coachella Valley,
and will return to the ring after a jaw-dropping,
first-round knockout at Fantasy Springs this past May 2022.
“Tito” will participate in a 12-round flyweight bout against
Caracas, Venezuela’s Angelino “Huracán” Cordova (17-0-1, 12
KOs). The action will be broadcast worldwide on DAZN
beginning at 6:00 p.m. PT / 9:00 p.m. ET.
"We are working hard in the gym here in Indio, California
with Joel Díaz. Cordova is a great fighter who comes from
the front, I don't know much about him but I'll be ready for
him,” said Angel Acosta. "I am very happy and motivated for
this fight because it puts us close to an opportunity for
the world championship. On April 6 I will be ready to put on
a show for Puerto Rico and my family.“
“It’s a great opportunity for my career,” said Angelino
Cordova. ”I feel really excited and happy with this fight.
There's going to be fireworks inside that ring. Tito Acosta
is a great champion and I have a lot of respect for him but
It will be a war. I am training in NY and will be ready to
face the best Acosta in April.”
