Also in action on the main card will be undefeated El Paso teenage sensation \u201cPoison\u201d Ivy Enriquez (7-0, 2 KO\u2019s) and unbeaten Las Cruces, N.M. star Ariana Carrasco (1-0, 1 KO), who will each face an opponent to be announced at a later date.<\/p>\n
\u201cFrom top to bottom, we are bringing a card of high-action fights with several different Red Owl stars and future champions to El Paso, a town with a rich history of great boxing,\u201d said Greg Bloom, CEO of Red Owl Boxing.<\/p>\n
Additional matchups for the Red Owl Boxing card will be announced at a later date.<\/p>\n
Moreno, a 21-year-old budding star from Wichita Falls, Texas is ranked number 11 in the world by the WBA and is coming off a unanimous decision victory over Francisco Pedroza Portillo on April 3.<\/p>\n

The 27-year-old Gutierrez of San Antonio, Texas, was a 2017 Team USA member who achieved the number two ranking in the 114-pound division as an amateur.<\/p>\n
Gutierrez will look to bounce back from a unanimous decision loss he suffered at the hands of Floyd Diaz on a Zuffa Boxing card on January 23.<\/p>\n
The main event matchup will be contested with the vacant WBA title at stake, and will see Moreno, a high-volume puncher who comes straight forward toward his opponent, square off with an opponent who utilizes top notch footwork and head movement.<\/p>\n
At just 19 years of age, Enriquez is regarded as one of the hottest prospects in boxing, winning each of her first five professional fights last year in the bantamweight division.<\/p>\n

Enriquez was a decorated youth world champion and member of Team USA, who earned several national titles as an amateur.<\/p>\n
Carrasco is a 22-year-old, 12-time U.S. national amateur champion and former international bronze medalist who fights at super welterweight (154 pounds).<\/p>\n
A three-time member of Team USA, Carrasco will look for her second professional win after scoring a first-round knockout of Tennielle Young in Carrasco\u2019s pro debut on March 14. ###<\/p>\n
