Laredo native, fan favorite, all-action fighter Jorge Castanedo, 17-3 (13) looks to get back into world title contention tomorrow night at the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona as he takes on undefeated prospect Charley Suarez 17-0 (9). of the Philippines. Many consider Suarez a blue-chip prospect and a top-ten 130-pounder in the world. A win over Suarez would put the South Texan back into the world title picture where he was in 2022 following upset victories over Otha Jones III and Youssef Khoumari, a pair of highly touted undefeated Matchroom Prospects. Castaneda has been called in before to be an opponent for an up-and-coming 130-pound prospect and has thrived in the role of spoiler. A win Saturday night on ESPN would be the biggest of his career.
