Promotional Deal
July 2, 2010
(JULY 20 A stellar amateur who has gone on to build a
sizeable fan following in less than three years as an unbeaten
professional, super bantamweight prospect Efrain Esquivias is going to
take the next step towards a world championship with Thompson Boxing
Promotions, who signed him to an exclusive promotional deal this week.
“We’re proud to announce the signing of Efrain Esquivias to Thompson
Boxing Promotions, and we have a lot of confidence that he will
eventually join the ranks of our world champions Timothy Bradley and
Yonnhy Perez,” said Ken Thompson, founder of Thompson Boxing Promotions.
“Efrain is a talented boxer with an exciting style, and he’s a mature
young man as well, which means he has all the tools to go far in this
sport.”
“I’m happy to be on the Thompson Boxing Promotions team, and I plan on
becoming the next world champion on the roster,” said Esquivias. “I’m
determined to get to the top, and I’ve dedicated my career to my father,
so I won’t let him down.”
A 2006 National Golden Gloves champion at bantamweight, Carson,
California’s Efrain Esquivias (8-0, 5 KOs) has made a seamless
transition to the pro ranks, earning victories and positive notices in
all eight of his pro bouts. Inspired by his late father, Efrain Sr.,
Esquivias has won four of his last five by knockout, and the 26-year old
can box or bang, making him a tough style matchup for anyone in the
super bantamweight division. Esquivias will make his Thompson Boxing
Promotion debut later this month on Saturday, July 31 at The Doubletree
Hotel in Ontario, California.
