New Mexico boxer Rolyn Nez aims to stay busy vs. Daniel Gonzalez at Ohkay Casino
Summary
Rolyn Nez, a promising welterweight boxer from Bloomfield, New Mexico, is scheduled to fight Daniel Gonzalez on Saturday at Ohkay Casino Hotel. Nez has won all five of his professional bouts, but his career has been hampered by infrequent opportunities. His father and trainer, Roland Nez, hopes a new promotional relationship with Pat Holmes will lead to more consistent fights and increased exposure. Nez previously faced challenges securing consistent fights due to issues with managers and promoters, including a canceled bout in Phoenix due to incomplete medical paperwork and difficulties finding suitable opponents at the Inn of the Mountain Gods. Gonzalez is expected to be Nez’s toughest opponent to date, though Nez previously defeated him by unanimous decision in the amateur ranks. The fight represents a crucial step for Nez to stay active, improve his record, and advance his boxing career.
