Former junior welterweight titleholder Subriel Matias will return to the ring on November 9 in a 10-round bout against Roberto Ramirez at the Ruben Rodriguez Coliseum in Bayamon, Puerto Rico. The event will be broadcast on PPV.com and iN Demand.
Matias (20-2, 20 KOs), from Fajardo, Puerto Rico, will be making his first appearance since losing his IBF title to Liam Paro in a unanimous decision upset last June. The 32-year-old Matias will seek to deliver the win for his home crowd that he was unable to produce against Paro.
Ramírez (26-3-1, 19 KOs), a 31-year-old from Mexico, is returning from an 11-month layoff. He is on a three-fight win streak following a stoppage loss to William Zepeda in 2020 and has fought just once per year in the last three years.
In the co-main event, two-time world champion Emmanuel “Manny” Rodriguez (22-3, 13 KOs) of Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, will face unbeaten Jose Salas (15-0, 10 KOs) of Mexico in a 12-round IBF bantamweight title eliminator. Junior welterweight champion Alfredo “Ojo” Santiago (15-2, 6 KOs) of Fajardo will defend his title against Mexico’s Pedro “La Roca” Campa (36-3-1, 24 KOs). Additionally, bantamweight Jeyvier Cintrón (12-1, 6 KOs) of Bayamon will face Rashib Martinez (23-3-1, 11 KOs) of Mexico.
The pay-per-view price for the event is $39.95.
