Tsotne Rogava lands California main event

Toro Promotions will showcase a heavyweight trio – undefeated 2021 Ukraine Olympian Tsotne Rogava (5-0, 5 KOs), Alexander “The Great” Flores (18-4-1, 16 KOs) and Kingsley Ibeh (11-2-1, 9 KOs) – this Saturday night (March 23rd) at LumColor Phoenix Center in Ontario, California. The event is co-promoted by Fearless Boxing Promotions. The 6’ 5”, 270-pound Rogava will be in his first scheduled eight-round bout on March 23rd, taking on big punching Antonio Brown (8-4, 8 KOs) in the main event.
 
Born in Georgia, Rogava lived for several years in Ukraine until moving last year to Marina del Rey, California. He has successfully transitioned to boxing from muay thai and kickboxing. Rogava is on the fast track; this fight will be his third in 2024, albeit neither bout went beyond the first round. In fact, the powerful heavyweight has only boxed seven rounds in his five pro fights to date.
 
Fighting out of Rowland Heights, California, Flores, age 33, faces Josue Vargas (5-6-2, 2 KOs) in a six-round match. Flores plans to rebound from his ten-round unanimous decision loss to 15-1-1 Dante Stone this past January 4th. Flores’ three other pro career losses have all been to champions: Luis Ortiz, Joseph Parker, and Charles Martin
 
Ibeh, known as “The Black Lion,” is a native of Nigeria who lives in Phoenix. The 6’ 4” Ibeh will be riding a six-fight win streak into his six-round fight with Derek Cardenas (9-11, 2 KOs). Ibeh has boxing in his blood. His cousin is Ike Ibeabuchi, who was 20-0 with 15 knockouts and one of the most feared heavyweights in boxing, prior to his 16-year incarceration in Nevada.
