Share

Once-beaten super lightweights Mark Lewis of Mira Loma and Jaime Ocegueda of Norwalk headline tonight’s boxing card at the Irvine Marriott.

Lewis, a former Golden Gloves champion, has won 14 of his 15 fights, 12 by knockout. Ocegueda (14-1-2, nine knockouts) is probably the toughest opponent Lewis has faced.

Ocegueda, 27, won the Penta Continental super lightweight title in May in a 12-round decision over Angelo Nunez at the Woodland Hills Marriott. Nunez recently lost to Gabriel Ruelas in 10 rounds on a head butt.
