Phoenix, Ariz. (May 20, 2021) – Thunderbolt Boxing announced today its return to live events with Championship Boxing scheduled to take place Friday, June 4 at Arizona Federal Theatre (formerly known as Comerica Theatre) in at 4th Ave. and Washington St. The event will be the first for the venue since it closed its doors due to the global pandemic.

“Last year, we were devastated to see our events cancelled like many sporting events around the world,” said Dennis Rider, Thunderbolt Boxing Matchmaker. “We’ve been at work with the Arizona Boxing Commission to establish protocols that will allow us to operate this event as safely as possible for all involved and bring championship boxing to Downtown Phoenix.”

The event will feature 10 fights with a combination of local boxers from throughout Arizona and visiting competitors, as well as an exciting ring girl competition. Doors and bars will open at 5:30 p.m. The main event will feature Phoenix’s undefeated rising boxing star Alfredo Escarcega (11-0, Avondale, AZ) versus a very tough Brian Rodriguez.

Additional local fan favorites include #2 U.S. rated flyweight boxing sensation Anthony Clark (11-0, San Luis, AZ), Elijah Garcia (4-0, Phoenix, AZ), Edgar Ortiz (8-2, Phoenix, AZ) and Carlos Velasquez (3-0, Phoenix, AZ). All bouts are subject to change.

Tickets start at just $40 and are available at the Arizona Federal Theatre box office or online via .com or ArizonaFederalTheatre.com.
