Ibai Llanos has officially unveiled the exciting details for the fifth installment of La Velada del Año, scheduled for July 26, 2025, at the historic Estadio de La Cartuja in Seville, Spain. This unique boxing event is set to feature some of the most popular streamers and content creators from the Spanish-speaking world, promising to be the highlight of the year!
For the first time, this edition will be held at night and is expected to extend until 3 AM local time, introducing new energy and excitement to the already thrilling format. With the venue capable of accommodating over 60,000 spectators, the atmosphere is anticipated to be electric, making it the largest Velada yet. Llanos expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "This year we are bringing you more surprises, with more production and excitement than ever!" This event marks not only the growth of the spectacle but also its commitment to thrilling entertainment.
The event will feature seven highly anticipated matches, and the confirmed fights show a fascinating mix of personalities and rivalries. One standout matchup will pit Mexican influencer Rivaldios against Spanish streamer Pereira. The history between them began during El Partidazo de Youtubers, where tensions flared, hinting at the potential for fireworks when they meet inside the ring.
Joining them, Perxitaa is set to face off against Argentine Gaspi. Perxitaa is known for his role as president of Troncos FC within the Kings League Spain, bringing experience mixed with his competitive spirit. Gaspi, on the other hand, is famous for his humorous and often irreverent videos, which should make for an entertaining clash.
Another highly anticipated fight features Spanish streamer Abby going up against the TikTok sensation Roro. Abby's controversial presence and Roro's rapid ascent to fame create not just excitement but also significant stakes as they meet for what will surely be one of the night’s highlight battles. The events surrounding the women's fights have historically been some of the most intense, adding to the electric atmosphere expected at La Velada del Año V.
Alana Flores will also make her return to the ring, facing off against Spain's Ari Geli. Alana, who has recently garnered attention for her relationship with Uruguayan soccer player Sebastián Cáceres, seeks to outclass her opponent and solidify her status as a top competitor, especially after winning her previous bout alongside Amablitz last year against notable opponents.
Moving onto the more muscle-bound competitors, the event will showcase physical strength and athleticism when Carlos Belcast steps up against Andoni Fitness. Both are fitness influencers, and fans are excited to see how their physical prowess translates to the boxing ring.
The lineup also includes the returning champion Viruzz, who has won at La Velada previously, squaring off against Argentina's Tomás Mazza, another influencer with prior boxing experience. Lastly, there's the intriguing match between Colombian streamer Westcol and Spain's Thegrefg, adding even more diversity to this packed card.
Llanos has hinted at other surprises planned for the event but has kept them under wraps, building anticipation for what is sure to be another unforgettable night. Alongside the fights, fans can expect engaging entertainment, bridging both sports and community spirit, enhancing the viewer experience. He voiced, "The event has grown exponentially since it started!" This reflects not only the popularity of the event but also the engagement it has brought within the audience.
The Velada del Año, growing steadily since its initiation back in 2021, brings together major figures from the streaming and content creation world to participate in amateur boxing, creating not just moments of competition but also festivities filled with camaraderie and excitement.
