| LAS VEGAS, NV (January 21, 2026) — Undefeated super middleweight, Ronny Alvarez (5-0, 4 KOs), is entering 2026 with confidence, focus, and something to prove as he prepares to face Braulio Matias Ferreira (7-2, 2 KOs) of Colonia, Uruguay, in a scheduled six-round bout on Saturday, January 24, 2026. The fight will take place on the undercard of Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing event headlined by the IBF world title clash between Raymond Muratalla and Andy Cruz, live from the Fontainebleau Las Vegas and streaming worldwide on DAZN.
A slick Cuban southpaw with growing knockout power, Alvarez, who is promoted with Boxlab Promotions, Warriors Boxing and Dreambigg Promotions, says this training camp has been his most demanding and rewarding to date. “This camp was all about sharpening everything, my conditioning, my timing, my mentality,” said Alvarez on his recent training camp, as he emphasized the discipline and urgency that defined his preparation. “I know I’m stepping onto a bigger stage now, so I trained like someone who belongs there. Every sparring session, every round, I treated it like fight night. I’m hungry, and I want to show people that I’m not just undefeated, I’m dangerous.”
Facing a durable and experienced opponent in Ferreira, Alvarez understands the challenge in front of him and welcomes it. “Ferreira is coming to fight. He’s tough, he’s experienced, and he’s not flying all this way to lose,” Alvarez said on his matchup with Ferreira, expressing respect, but no hesitation. “But styles make fights, and I believe my southpaw angles, my speed, and my pressure are going to separate me. I’m looking to break him down and make a statement, plain and simple.”
A victory on January 24 would represent more than just another win on Alvarez’s record, it would signal his arrival as a serious prospect in the super middleweight division. “A win here puts me in a great position,” Alvarez said on what a win would mean for his career, as he didn’t hide his ambitions. “This is about momentum. I want 2026 to be my breakout year, and it starts with this fight. I’m chasing bigger opportunities, bigger names, and I know great performances is how you earn them.”
Making his Las Vegas debut on a globally streamed platform only adds fuel to Alvarez’s motivation. “Las Vegas is the fight capital of the world, and DAZN means the world is watching,” he concluded. “This is what I’ve worked for. I’m excited, I’m focused, and I’m ready to show fans everywhere who Ronny Alvarez is.”
Boxlab Promotions President Amaury Piedra believes Alvarez is only scratching the surface of his potential. “Ronny is the kind of fighter you build with patience and purpose,” said Piedra. “He has the skill set, the mindset, and the work ethic to go far in this sport. This fight is another step in the right direction, and we see a very bright future for him at super middleweight.”
With momentum on his side and the spotlight growing brighter, Ronny Alvarez is ready to make his Las Vegas debut count—and announce himself as a rising force in the super middleweight division.
