PAULO AOKUSO VS. LUIS ANTONIO TEJEDA
After representing Australia at the 2020 Olympics, Aukuso (10-0, 5 KOs) has shown his huge potential against a series of more experienced pro competitors since his April 2022 pro debut. Amongst the 29-year-old’s early triumphs are longtime contender Yuniesky Gonzalez and the previously unbeaten Shukhrat Abdullaev. Most recently, Aokuso scored a victory in PBC action in April, as he stopped Kittipong Jian Hao Ho.
The 27-year-old Tejeda (12-0-1, 9 KOs) will fight for the first time outside of his native Dominican Republic on July 25, as the El Seibo native steps up to this battle of unbeatens. Tejeda has fought professionally since 2023 and enters this fight having stopped four of his last five opponents. His last outing saw him earn a fourth-round knockout of Vikensi Mateo in February.
TINA RAHIMI VS. SACHA RYAN DRYDEN
The first Australian Muslim woman boxer to compete in the Olympics, Rahimi will make her pro debut after representing the Aussies at the 2024 Summer games. The 30-year-old of Iranian origin was an accomplished amateur who took home a bronze medal at the 2022 Commonwealth Games. She’ll take on Queensland, Australia’s Dryden (2-2), who fought twice in 2025, beating then 2-0 Stasia Waimaria by decision in February before losing a 10-round decision to Tywarna Campbell in May.
