"MASSIVE SHOWDOWN: Ernesto Mercado Ready to Shine on DAZN!"
Ernesto "Tito" Mercado, crowned Boxing Scene's 2023 Prospect of the Year, is poised to dazzle on a larger stage as he headlines a Red Owl Boxing event on DAZN. With an impressive record of 14-0, Mercado aims to showcase his talent and solidify his status as a rising star in the boxing world.
The 22-year-old fighter from Pomona, California, has been on a tear since turning pro in 2021, knocking out notable opponents such as former world title challengers Hank Lundy, Jeremiah Nakathila, and Jayson Velez. Despite his dominant performances, Mercado has yet to sign with a promoter, primarily competing in smaller shows across Southern California.
Now, Mercado looks to make a breakthrough on DAZN, facing off against Deiner Berrio in a 10-round junior welterweight bout. Berrio, a seasoned 33-year-old Colombian contender, presents a new challenge for Mercado, having never been stopped in his career.
Mercado acknowledges the importance of gaining more experience in the ring, expressing a desire to go more rounds despite his knack for quick knockouts. With just 39 rounds under his belt, Mercado, trained by his father Neto Mercado, remains focused on honing his skills and proving himself on the big stage.
As Mercado prepares to step into the spotlight, anticipation builds for what promises to be an electrifying showdown between two talented fighters. With his sights set on victory and a statement-making performance, Mercado is ready to seize the moment and show the world what he's truly capable of.
