Las Vegas’ Rojas (14-0, 11 KOs) stopped his first eleven professional opponents inside the distance, including Diego Santiago Sanchez in July 2023. Rojas followed that up by besting Saul Bustos in September 2023, Christian Baez in January 2024 and Walter Cardoba in April 2024, all by unanimous decision.
 
Rojas will be challenged by Lee (15-1-2, 6 KOs) of Woodland Hills, Calif. Lee will look to extend his win streak to seven following a pair of majority draws in September 2018 and February 2019. Since then, Lee has rattled off six straight victories, the most recent of which was a knockout win over Les Byfield in January of last year.
 
The Mexico City native Garcia (12-0, 9 KOs), having fought all of his professional fights in Mexico, will be making his U.S. debut on March 22. The undefeated power puncher has knocked out his last two opponents and will aim to make it three-in-a-row when he steps between the ropes at Michelob Ultra Arena.
 
He’ll face a rugged opponent in Slavinskyi (15-3-1, 7 KOs) of Los Angeles, Calif., who has won two of his last three fights and who owns a victory over Cuba's Leduan Barthelemy.
