Houston native and world-class featherweight Miguel Flores returns to the ring as he tries to get himself back into the world title picture as he headlines a P4P promotions card at the Bayou Event Center in his hometown. It's the first time Flores has fought in his hometown in three years. He outpointed Diuhl Olguin at the Toyota Center in the summer of 2021 on the Jermall Charlo vs Juan Montiel card. Flores last fought in Australia in 2023 and was outpointed by Sam Goodman before the Flores fought ring legend and likely hall of famer Abner Mares to a draw in 2022. At 32, the Houston native will take on Michael Chaise Nelson, 21-2-1 (8), of Mansfield, Ohio. Nelson is coming off a split-decision win over Nestor Gonzalez in Venezuela.
The card also features a loaded undercard as Undefeated southpaw lightweight and Houston native Oscar Perez puts his "0" on the line against St Louis, Missouri native Derrick Murray, a veteran of nearly 30 pro bouts and sports a respectable record of 19-9-1 (6).
The card also features a title fight as San Antonio-based fighter Reina Tellez, 9-0-1 (5), takes on Jermesha Poke, 5-0 (2), in a battle of unbeaten for the NABF 122 pound title in a scheduled eight-rounder.
The card also features two highly touted prospects. Fabian Arrendondo, 5-0 (1), also a Houston native, and Bryan, Texas native Chase Martinez, 1-0 (1), a junior middleweight, both prospects will be in four-round affairs.
