Dwight Hawkins the 9th ranked featherweight in the world holds an 8-5 line as the slight favorite over Bobby Valdez of San Diego in a 10 round main event at the Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles.

The victor eyes a possible engagement with Raul Rojas, California’s world junior lightweight champ. The bout was originally delayed after Hawkins suffered a cut lip in sparring.
