Eric "Pitbull" Gamboa, hailing from Cancun, delivered a stunning performance at the "Ricky-Box" event at the Hard Rock Riviera Maya hotel. In a thrilling main event, Gamboa defeated Ernesto "Temible" Garcia with a technical knockout in the fourth round of an eight-round bantamweight match. The fight was intense from the start, with Gamboa sending Garcia to the canvas in the first round.

Garcia managed to recover in the second round, causing a cut on Gamboa's face. However, Gamboa kept his cool and maintained control of the fight. The third round was marked by a fierce exchange of power between the two fighters.
