Both fighters have a lot at stake in the fight. At age 29, Matheus Domingos wants to break into the international heavyweight scene and emulate José Adilson “Maguila” Rodrigues dos Santos a former Brazilian heavyweight boxer that became the World Boxing Federation heavyweight Champion in 1996. Rodrigues also resides in Sao Paulo, Brazil and has been a Mateus Domingos adviser.

The co main event will be a title fight between Montenegro’s Middleweight  Milorac “Hammer Hands” Zizic (11-0, 5 K0) and Louie Rose (11-2; 3KO). They will be fighting for the vacant NABF Middleweight title.

Zizic will be making his second U.S. start after beating Dennis Sharpe in North Carolina, in June 2014.

This European fighter, left his family in Montenegro and relocated to Las Vegas, to persue his dream of becoming a World Champion, he already has a promise from his government that they would sponsor a World Championship fight, should he reach that opportunity in his career.

Rose’s  story is just, if not more, intersting.  He grew up in the Los Angeles area without his parents, mostly with his aunt, and moved from one relative’s  house to another, as well as sleep in his car, when he was homeless. Panayiotis Carabatsos a restaurant owner in Los Angeles adopted him and is now his boxing trainer.

Louis’ career as a professional boxer also looks promising. He is a rising California middleweight prospect who has upset several unbeaten fighters and surprised the crowd. Rose  defeated Gino McClellan, Delen Parsley and Akil Auguste in succession, fighters with a combined record of 21-0, to begin a 7 fight winning streak, before losing to unbeaten Ievgen  “The Ukranian Lion”  Khytrov last November.
