Blazen Rocili (6-0, 5 KOs), the undefeated 22-year-old Filipino middleweight star on the rise, is ready to make his highly anticipated return to the ring on September 21, 2024, at Thunder Studios in Long Beach, CA, on CBN Promotions’ next card. Standing at 6’3”, Rocili, a towering southpaw from Waipahu, Hawaii, has been turning heads with his rare size and power and is now training in Las Vegas under the watchful eye of respected boxing coach Richard Barrientes.
Rocili’s return to the ring marks the end of a year-and-a-half layoff, and fans can expect an electrifying performance from the towering Filipino fighter, who is looking to follow in the steps of his favourite fighter, Manny Pacquiao.
“I’ve been itching to get back in the ring,” said Rocili. “After a long layoff, I feel stronger, more focused, and ready to show everyone the improvements I’ve made. I’m determined to carry the torch for Filipino boxing. Following in the footsteps of legends like Manny Pacquiao is a dream, and I believe I have what it takes to be the next big star. This fight will be worth the wait.”
Having a presence in California is something that Rocili has envisioned since turning professional in 2021. His goal is to build a fanbase with the Filipino community in Los Angeles, and around the world.
“Fighting in California, especially for the first time, is an honor,” concluded Rocili. “I want to personally invite all my Filipino brothers and sisters to come out and support. Having the Filipino community behind me means everything. I’m excited to perform in front of a new crowd and I plan to make them proud. A win here will push me closer to where I need to be. It’s just the beginning of a long journey, and every victory brings me one step closer to my ultimate goal.”
Alex Camponovo, President of CBN Promotions, also sees Rocili’s unique potential. “The Filipino community in Los Angeles should absolutely come out to see this kid fight. It’s rare to see a Filipino boxer of Blazen’s size, and he’s an absolute talent. He’s someone you don’t want to miss.”
Rocili’s manager, Andrew Bocanegra, President of Boxing VIP, believes Rocili has the potential to follow in the footsteps of Filipino boxing greats. “Blazen Rocili is a southpaw and has all the tools to become the next Manny Pacquiao. His immense size, his power, and his work ethic are why I signed him. He brings an exciting stye to the ring and has great character. The Filipino community here in the USA and those back home in the Philippines should be keeping a close eye on Blazen, he is something special.”
Rocili is ready to make a statement on September 21 as he looks to solidify his place as the next Filipino star in the boxing world.
