02.04 -Talk about Hawaiian Punch! DiBella Entertainment and Tom Moffatt Productions have amazingly put together a seven-bout card on which every fight has a native of the Hawaiian Islands participating, including the main event featuring undefeated Olympian Brian Viloria (11-0, 6 KOs) vs. Valentin Leon (14-5, 6 KOs) on April 15 at the Sheraton Waikiki Ballroom, it was announced today by DBE president Lou DiBella and Moffatt Productions president Tom Moffatt.

Viloria, who hails from Waipahu, looks to extend his unblemished record against Mexico's Leon in a 10 round flyweight bout. Much has happened to Viloria since his last appearance in his home state of Hawaii. After stopping Sandro Oviedo in a single round on May 17, 2002, "Hawaiian Punch" has not only run off four consecutive victories, but has gained two titles (the WBC Youth and NABF flyweight titles), going from prospect to contender in the 112-pound division. He is currently ranked fifth by the WBC and sixth by the WBO.

"I'm happy to be able to fight in Hawaii again," said Viloria, a member of the 2000 US Olympic team. "I've been working very hard in the gym, and I'm looking forward to showing the Hawaiian people how I've improved since the last time they saw me."
