Boxing returns to the Quiet Cannon in Montebello, CA tonight as All
Star Boxing presents a six bout card loaded with action.
In the main event, Bantamweight Karen Hartyunyan will face
hard-hitting Gilberto Bolanos in an eight round fight. The bout
headlines a "Battle of the Rising Stars" card.
Hartyunyan, (11-1-3) from Glendale, CA by way of Yerevan, Armenia, is
undefeated in his last 12 fights. Hartyunyan has not lost a fight in
almost four years, when he lost by a four round majority decision to
Sergio Espinoza.
In his last fight, Hartyunyan defeated Romel Aguilar by an eight
round unanimous decision in June in Irvine, CA. Hartyunyan once wrote

Hartyunyan, who mostly fights at Super Bantamweight, makes for
exciting fights and always gives it his all in every fight.
Bolanos, (9-7-1, 9 KO's) from Ciudad Obregon, Sonora, Mexico, is
coming off a majority draw against undefeated Rudy Dominguez last
month in Temecula, CA.
Bolanos has faced some of the talented prospects in the lower weight
classes. He hopes to upset the young Hartyunyan on Friday night.
In the co-feature, Tia Greenberg will face Ku'ulei Kupihea In a fur
round female Welterweight bout.
Greenburg, (1-2, 1 KO) from Huntington Beach, CA, will fight for the

losing to Gail Muzzey in Irvine, CA.
Kuihea, (0-1) from Honolulu, HI, is looking for her first
professional victory. Her only defeat was at the Quiet Cannon last
year.
Undefeated fighters will go at it as Freddie Barrera will face
Alfonso Figueroa in a four round Lightweight bout.
Barrera, (3-0) from Colton, CA, is coming off a four round unanimous
decision victory over Alejandro Nungaray last month in Pala, CA.
Barrera has fought all of his professional fights this year and in
California.
Figueroa, (1-0) from Los Angeles, should make this an interesting
fight of undefeated fighters.

Esparza in a four round Welterweight bout. Esparza, from Los Angeles,
