The undefeated knockout sensation Keith “Tsunami” Colon (8-0-0, 8 KOs) steps up against the battle-tested veteran Alberto “Metro” Guevara (28-8-0, 13 KOs) in an eight-round featherweight bout. This matchup serves as part of the undercard for the WBC World Super Lightweight title fight between Subriel Matias and Dalton Smith. Colon, a rising prospect from Newark, New Jersey, aims to extend his perfect record against Guevara, a former world title challenger from Mazatlan, Mexico, who brings experience but has shown signs of decline in recent years. Expect a clash of youth and power versus grit and ring savvy, with Colon looking to make a statement in front of a New York crowd.

Injury Report
No injuries have been reported for either fighter leading into this bout. Both Colon and Guevara have been active in training camps without any noted setbacks, per recent news and social media updates. Colon, coming off an October 2025 win, appears fully fit, while Guevara’s sparse recent schedule suggests he’s healthy but potentially rusty. Any last-minute changes could arise, but as of January 6, 2026, both are cleared to fight.
Fighter Matchups
This is an eight-round featherweight contest (126 lbs limit) pitting a young KO artist against an experienced gatekeeper. Colon, at 23, brings explosive power and speed, while Guevara, 35, relies on his durability and counterpunching from over 200 professional rounds.
Key Stylistic Matchup: Colon’s aggressive, forward-pressure style (orthodox stance, 66.1″ reach) vs. Guevara’s veteran boxing IQ and resilience (orthodox, slight reach advantage at 66.9″). Colon has finished all his fights early, averaging under 2 rounds per win, which could overwhelm Guevara if the veteran can’t weather the early storm. Guevara’s experience against top competition (e.g., losses to Shakur Stevenson, Leo Santa Cruz) might allow him to drag Colon into deeper waters for the first time.
Tale of the Tape:
| Fighter | Record | Age | Height | Reach | Stance | KO % | Pro Rounds | Debut Year |
| Keith Colon | 8-0-0 (8 KOs) | 23 | 5’6″ | 66.1″ | Orthodox | 100% | 16 | 2024 |
| Alberto Guevara | 28-8-0 (13 KOs) | 35 | 5’6″ | 66.9″ | Orthodox | 46% | 198 | 2009 |

Alberto Guevara: The veteran has been inconsistent, snapping a five-fight losing streak with a recent win, but his activity is low—last four fights spanned over nine years. He’s durable but has struggled against elite talent, with losses to Shakur Stevenson (2019), Manny Flores (2024), and Hugo Ruiz (2019). At 35, his form shows resilience but vulnerability to power punchers.
