In a recent meeting of the El Paso County Commissioner’s Court, officials rallied support for the upcoming \"Ring Wars 12\" boxing event, scheduled for July 27, 2024, at the El Paso County Coliseum. The event, organized by Warrior's Edge Boxing in collaboration with King's Promotion, aims to showcase local talent alongside fighters from outside the region.

County Judge Ricardo Samaniego emphasized the importance of community participation, urging residents to fill the coliseum to support local athletes. The event will feature rising stars, including undefeated middleweight champion Jorge Tovar and Stephanie Hahn, who will compete for the World Boxing Association (WBA) Intercontinental Championship against Miranda Reyes from Houston.

Tovar, who began boxing at age eight and has an impressive record of 8-0 with six knockouts, expressed his desire to inspire local youth through his journey. Similarly, Hahn, also undefeated at 8-0, highlighted her commitment to representing El Paso and her aspirations to follow in the footsteps of her sister, Jennifer Hahn, the city’s first world champion.

The meeting also underscored the positive impact of boxing on the community, with officials noting the sport's role in mentoring at-risk youth. The event is seen as a pivotal moment for boxing in El Paso, with hopes that a strong turnout will attract more professional fights to the area in the future.

Tickets for the event are priced starting at $30, and the community is encouraged to attend and support local fighters as they aim for championship glory.
