This Saturday, October 25th, Mexican boxing will host a superflyweight showdown as Jassiel “Flashito” Amador Gamez (12-0-1, 12 KOs) faces Joaquín Cruz Castillo (14-5-2, 2 KOs). The bout will take place in La Paz, Baja California Sur — Amador’s hometown. At age 24, Amador has a perfect 100% knockout ratio since turning pro in 2022. He’s built his reputation as a possible star with emphatic wins over Lamberto Macías Meza, Carlos Vado Bautista and Yoel García González. His aggressive approach, fast hands, and ability to close the show early have made him a local favorite. Cruz, meanwhile, brings more professional experience and a resume that includes championship-level bouts. At age 31, he’s shared the ring with fighters like Juan Navarrete and most recently handed José Luis Russell his first career loss. Known for his durability, technical skills, and adaptability, Cruz doesn’t possess Amador’s power but compensates with ring IQ and distance control—tools that could be key to slowing down the young knockout artist.
