Brian Carlos Castaño vs. Wale Omotoso - November 2, 2019
Undefeated former champion Brian Carlos Castaño will battle exciting veteran contender Wale Omotoso in a 10-round super welterweight showdown that headlines FS1 PBC Fight Night and on FOX Deportes Saturday, November 2 from MGM National Harbor in Maryland.
Javier Fortuna vs. Jesus Andres Cuellar in co-feature
The action begins at 10:30 p.m. ET/7:30 p.m. PT and features former world champions Javier “El Abejón” Fortuna and Jesús Andrés Cuellar colliding in a 10-round super featherweight showdown in the co-feature.
Tickets for the event, which is promoted by TGB Promotions, go on sale Thursday, September 26 at 12 p.m. ET and can be purchased by visiting www.mgmnationalharbor.com/.
“Saturday, November 2 promises to be a can’t-miss night with two 50-50 fights that guarantee action as long as they last,” said Tom Brown, President of TGB Promotions. “The main event on FS1 and FOX Deportes will have an exciting unbeaten champion in Brian Carlos Castaño looking to climb back into championship contention against Wale Omotoso, who comes forward and refuses to relent every time he’s in the ring. Combined with the Fortuna vs. Cuellar fight, fans at MGM National Harbor aren’t going to want to leave their seats for a minute during this show.”
“I cannot wait to get into the ring again and show I’m one of the best fighters in this division,” said Castaño. “I believe I should still be holding my title, and that makes me feel even more motivated to beat a tough opponent like Omotoso. He’s a straight forward fighter that takes every fight to you and has never been knocked out. I know I have to prove myself in this fight in order to get back to the world title.”
Born in Lagos, Nigeria and now living in Los Angeles, Omotoso (28-4, 22 KOs) is nicknamed “Lucky Boy” but when he steps into the ring, chance has little to do with the outcome. The 34-year-old most recently scored a dominant knockout over longtime contender Curtis Stevens on FOX in August, in just his third fight at 154-pounds. A veteran who has gone the distance against then unbeaten fighters in his only four defeats, Omotoso will look to put himself in position to fight for a world title with a career-best win on November 2.
Omotoso ready for Castano
“I’m very excited for this fight against a great opponent who is always in exciting fights like me,” said Omotoso. “None of the welterweights wanted to fight me because I’m too dangerous, so now I’m on my way to fighting the best at 154-pounds. I feel stronger and more solid in my base at this weight. I know that I’m going to have to be at my best against Castaño and do what I know how to do.”
