(JULY 12) On July 23, 2011, Christina Ruiz, 25 years old, of Antonio, Texas, will be fighting in her first world title fight when she takes on New York's Alicia Ashley, 43, 16-9-1 (1KO). The two will be fighting for the WBC super bantamweight title, at the Hunts Point Produce Market, in Brooklyn, New York.  Esteban Erik Stipnieks spent some time with Ruiz and her trainer Emilio while she has been training in San Antonio for her upcoming anticipated fight against Ashley.

The event is presented by Joe DeGuardia's Star Boxing, the American Cancer Society and Hunts Point Produce Market. The "Knock Out Cancer" event, which will be held outside will also feature undefeated heavyweight prospect, Joe "The Future" Hanks (16-0, 11KO's) as he looks to capture his first title in the heavyweight division when he takes on former member of Season 4 of "The Contender" Alfredo Escalera Jr. (18-3-1, 12KO's). All the proceeds from the show will be donated to the American Cancer Society.

"I have been working with the American Cancer Society on this concept for a few years now. It is rewarding that it will come to fruition right here in the Bronx," stated Joe DeGuardia, CEO and President of Star Boxing. "This will be a special event and I am pleased that we will be able to help in the fight against Cancer. Boxing and Cancer go together in a way, as both boxers and cancer victims must deal with their adversity with courage, determination and hard work. On July 23rd the boxers will be fighting in the ring and also for those cancer fighters out there worldwide that are fighting for their lives to beat this disease. Perhaps adding to the multi-dimensional fight against Cancer is that we are doing this event with, and at, the Hunts Point Produce Market. How fitting to have this fight at the home of the fruits and vegetable market that serves the entire NY area, considering fruits and vegetables are known to be the right choice for healthy eating. We expect the event on July 23rd to be a great success and plan on this being the first of many such events in the future."
