Bay Area Boxing Is About to Punch You Right in the Feels 🥊

La Boxe, Boxing Beats, Aubervilliers, France

The Bay Area boxing scene is about to get a serious adrenaline shot of local talent, and trust us, you won’t want to miss it.

Local Heroes Rising

Professional boxing has long been dominated by glitzy cities like Vegas and NYC, but Oakland is ready to throw some serious punches into that narrative. The “Straight Outta Oakland” fight card is bringing home-grown boxing talent center stage at the Oakland Marriott City Center this weekend.

More Than Just Fights

This isn’t just another sporting event, it’s a launching pad for future boxing legends. G1 Promotions CEO Marty Chima is betting big on local fighters like Lorenzo Powell, Kumar Prescod, Braulio Ceja, and Alberto Velasco. These aren’t just boxers; they’re potential superstars in the making.

From Local Ring to Global Stage

Last year’s event showcased Oakland native Amari Jones, who went from local knockout artist to signing with Golden Boy Promotions. It’s a testament to how these local fight nights can be career-defining moments for young athletes. With plans to host five shows next year, G1 Promotions is determined to put Bay Area boxing back on the map.

Tickets start at $105, and for boxing fans and local pride enthusiasts, this is your chance to say you saw these fighters before they became household names.
