A group of newly-signed Ringstar Sports talent was on display at the Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood Tuesday, as the young fighters participated in a media workout in advance of their respective pro debuts taking place Sunday, April 9 from The Novo at L.A. Live in downtown Los Angeles.

Participating in Tuesday's workout was 2016 U.S. Olympian Karlos Balderas of Santa Maria, Calif., who will make his pro debut in a six-round super featherweight contest featured on the Premier Boxing Champions on FS1 and FOX Deportes telecast.

Also working out for the media was 2016 Team Mexico Olympic Bronze medalist Misael Rodriguez, who is trained by Robert Garcia and managed by Abner Mares, 2016 Lithuanian Olympian Eimantas Stanionis, who is trained by Freddie Roach and 2016 Mexican Olympian Lindolfo Delgado.

Televised coverage begins at 9:30 p.m. ET/6:30 p.m. PT and is headlined by former world title challenger Josesito "Riverside Rocky" Lopez battling Mexico's Saul Corral in a 10-round showdown, plus unbeaten lightweight Alejandro "El Charro" Luna facing former title challenger Andrey Klimov.

Tickets for the live event, which is promoted by Ringstar Sports, are priced at $30 general admission, $60 balcony reserved, $100 VIP balcony reserved and are on sale now. Tickets can be purchased through AXS.com HERE.

"I just wanted to help out Misael on the business side of the sport and that's why I got involved in his career. I brought him to Robert's gym to spar and everyone saw that he has a lot of skills.

"Being a bronze medalist from Mexico is a big thing to bring into the pros and I think it's something the Mexican fans can get behind. Misael has room to grow but I believe the skills are there to be a world champion.

"I'm hoping to use my experience and my relationships to get him the right fights and put him in a position to reach his full potential."
