Medina, also known as “El Castigo” is 3-0 in 2021 and looking forward to finishing the year with another victory. Saturday’s main event will be Medina’s first fight in San Antonio since 2019.
“El Castigo” found ways to fight last year as the pandemic canceled fights in the United States. Medina decided to stay active by going to Mexico to fight, where he won all three of his bouts.
Doors open at 6:00 p.m. and the first fight is expected at 7:30 p.m. Tickets can be bought by calling 210-449-5599 or 210-322-9974. Tickets will also be sold at the box office of Wolff Stadium and online at SAMissions.com.
