Undefeated Colombian Bantamweight, Golden Boy prospect Oscar “El
Jaguar” Negrete,14-0, 5 KO’s of Los Angeles, California by way of Tierra
Alta, Columbia returns to the ring this Friday in the LA Fight Club
Series at the Belasco Theater in downtown Los Angeles. Negrete takes on
Jose “Flash” Bustos, 11-6-3, 7 KO’s of Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. The always
tough Bustos has won three in a row since his last loss in 2015 to
undefeated Lamont Roach, JR.
Negrete is managed by Cesar Garcia and trains at the Who’s Next
Boxing Academy in Industry, California. Oscar has been working with WBA
featherweight champion Leo Santa Cruz and his father, trainer Jose Santa
Cruz, along with assistant trainer and Leo’s brother Antonio Santa
Cruz. Negrete had his biggest year to date in 2015, going 5-0 and has
been a regular face at LA Fight Club, fighting his last five fights
there, all which were victories including a stunning knockout of Ernesto
Guerrero in the third round on the December 4th card and a unanimous
decision victory against Neftali Campos on March 4, 2016. Now Negrete
looks to add another victory to his record when he headlines LA Fight
Club for the first time in his career against the tough Jose Bustos
Friday night.
I spoke to Oscar and he told me he finished his sparring last week.
Oscar stated he sparred with Leo Santa Cruz, prospect Jose “El Gallo”
Gomez and former world champion Giovanni Segura plus several others
including Danny Roman at the Who’s Next Boxing Academy. “I feel good and
I’m ready to give fans an exciting show” stated Negrete. Oscar also
hopes that after this victory he’ll be involved in a eliminator
tournament at 118 and looks for a showdown with champion Lee Haskins in
2017. For those that haven’t watched Negrete fight, he’s an all action
come forward style fighter that stays busy and likes to put on a show
for his fans. “The night of the fight you will see my style, I have
prepared for a great fight, a great victory, hopefully I’ll get the
knockout.”
