Byron Rojas WBC US Junior Light Flyweight Title July 25, 2025

At The TROPICANA in Atlantic City, NJ

Byron Rojas Is Back — July 25 on DAZN

Byron “Gallito” Rojas (29-4-3, 12 KOs) returns to the ring on July 25, facing Andy Dominguez Velasquez (12-1, 6 KOs) at the Tropicana Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City, NJ. The bout, which will be broadcast live on DAZN, is for the WBC US Junior Light Flyweight Title — and it marks his first fight under the Eruption Boxing Management banner.

Rojas trains out of Eli J. Boxing Club, which is proudly based inside FITIN24 — a full-service fitness facility located in Holland, Michigan. He is currently ranked #12 by the WBA at 108 lbs. A former WBA and IBO Minimumweight World Champion, Rojas has fought at the top level before — and wants to prove he still belongs there.

“I’ve fought World Champions, strong opponents — that experience gives me confidence,” said Rojas. “This fight, it’s going to be a war. I’m 100% locked in.”

Dominguez is a talented fighter with a solid record and plenty of power. Rojas isn’t looking past him.

“He’s a great fighter — really strong, with a big right hand. That excites me. I like to test myself against the best, and Andy Dominguez is one of the best.”

The fight was put together by Gwen Legge, Manager who brought Rojas into the Eruption Boxing Management stable earlier this year.

“We’re working with a gem,” said Legge. “It was the right time for Byron, and the right time for us. Sometimes the stars align.”

“We’re really thankful,” said Rojas. “This opportunity came through Gwen Legge, Manager at Eruption Boxing Management. She got this fight made for us, and we’re going to make the most of it.”

He also spoke about the pride he feels representing Nicaragua.

“I always carry the flag. I want everyone back home to feel proud. I’m bringing that spirit into the ring.”

For Rojas, representing Nicaragua has always been bigger than boxing. His journey from Managua to world title fights around the globe has made him one of the most respected names in Nicaraguan boxing.

“This isn’t just about me,” he said. “It’s about showing that Nicaraguan boxing is still alive — still fighting. I want the next generation back home to see that it’s possible.”

A proud ambassador for Nicaraguan boxing, Rojas carries more than his own ambition into the ring — he carries the hopes of a fighting nation.

A win here could catapult him back into the world title picture. With momentum behind him, Rojas could be in line to face current WBA World Champion Eric Rosa of the Dominican Republic — a fight that would carry major implications for the Light Flyweight Division.

Rojas, who beat South African World Champion Hekkie Budler in 2016 to win the WBA and IBO world titles, is no stranger to big moments. He’s made a career out of pushing forward, even when the odds weren’t in his favor.

He also pushed current WBA Minimumweight Champion Thammanoon Niyomtrong in a pair of competitive fights in Thailand. Rojas is no stranger to fighting away from home — and he’s proven time and again that he can rise to the occasion on foreign soil.

Now, with another run in his sights, he’s looking to remind everyone that he’s still a serious player at 108 pounds.

“We’re currently speaking with two major promoters and lining up two more high-level opponents for Byron — including title and world title opportunities. This is just the start of what’s coming for him.” — Gwen Legge, Manager
