AGON Sports Celebrates Its Premiere In Mallorca: Big Stage In Palma With Two WBA Title Fights
The capital of Mallorca will become the stage for a special evening for international professional boxing on May 1: AGON Sports is hosting its first-ever boxing gala on the Balearic island, making a strong statement in a location that has long been more than just a destination for promotion. The historic ambiance of the “Pueblo Español” in the heart of Palma was deliberately chosen as an exceptional backdrop, combining Mediterranean flair with high-octane sporting excitement.
For AGON, this event is far more than just another fixture on the calendar. Mallorca has been an important location for promotion for years, as AGON operates its own gym there, and promoter Ingo Volckmann has also found a second home on the island. This makes hosting a fight night in Palma for the first time all the more significant. The event also has a special context, as it takes place during this year’s convention of the German Professional Boxing Federation (BDB), thus bringing it into the spotlight of the German boxing scene.
The sporting highlight of the evening will be two high-caliber WBA title fights. In the flyweight division, AGON’s new signing, the top Spanish contender Samuel Carmona (13-1-0), will face the experienced Venezuelan Rodrigo Ramirez (21-2-2). The WBA Intercontinental title will be contested over ten rounds, and it promises to be a duel between two technically skilled boxers, with Carmona aiming to take another step towards the top of the world rankings in front of his home crowd.
In the heavyweight division, the “Cuban Hulk” Carlos Castillo Rodriguez (10-0-0, 6 KOs) faces his next challenge. He will fight for the WBA Fedelatin title against Argentinian Jonathan Exequiel Vergara (9-3-0, 5 KOs) over ten rounds. Castillo, who is increasingly establishing himself in the rankings, aims to further improve his flawless record and definitively position himself as a serious contender in the international heavyweight division.
Ingo Volckmann is particularly excited about the event: “I’ve wanted to host an event in Mallorca for a long time, and now we have the perfect setting. ‘The Spanish Village’ Pueblo Español provides the perfect backdrop for our first event here in Mallorca. Spectators can look forward to more than just the two title fights. I promise there will be some exciting names and surprises on the undercard!”
With its premiere in Palma, AGON Sports is sending a clear message: boxing belongs on international stages – where atmosphere, audience, and sporting quality merge into a complete experience. Further undercard fights will be officially announced in the coming days. Ticket sales will begin shortly.
