Two rising stars from Texas will be featured again on Saturday's Golden Boy card in Las Vegas at the Cosmopolitan. On the undercard of the intriguing Cruiserweight fight between Joe Smith jr and Gilberto Ramirez, both "Sweet T" Tristian Kalkreuth and "DFG" Darius Fulghum will be featured in step-up fights.
Kalkreuth, 11-1 (8), also a cruiserweight, who hails from Duncanville, will battle rugged contender Aaron Casper, 7-4-2 (5) in an eight-round affair. It will be the first eight-rounder for Kalkreuth, who has fought three times in the last twice in the last three months. He picked up a tougher-than-expected decision over Jonathan Rice of Fort Worth in April and came back this summer and stopped Joe Jones in San Antonio. Casper is best known for his 2021 draw with Matchroom Prospect Khalil Coe.
Also on the Card is Destined for Greatness, "DFG" the amateur standout, is off to an outstanding start to his career, compiling a 7-0 (7). Saturday will be his fifth fight of the year and his third in three months. Fulghum stopped Jeremiah Curtright in July and then came back in September and stopped Ricardo Adrian Luna. He will now take on Alan Campa, 18-8 (12), who went the distance with Junior Younan in his last outing back in May in Orlando, Florida.
