Pueblo, Colorado February 1st 2013-Top amateur 185 lbs. prospect Jose Caro will head to Matt Lindland’s
Team Quest in preparation for his 2013 professional debut stated coach and
mentor Gabe Charboneau on Tuesday. “Matt has expressed an interest in Jose’s
talent and physicality feeling that he’d be a valuable asset to Yushin Okami
and some of the middleweight prospects from Russia scheduled to come out to Quest in March.”
stated Charboneau. “This is obviously a huge opportunity for him to work with
high caliber opponents and get away from the norm so I’m very happy for him.” While Caro maintains a keen eye on a pro
debut this year he states that his ultimate dream would be an accepted slot on
the tentative and widely rumored “Ultimate Fighter” Mexico.
As an amateur “El
Fuego” racked up an impressive resume battling all comers gaining the
additional moniker “Giant Killer” from his countrymen due to his twice
competing and dominating opponents over 6 foot 6. His tenacity earned him top honors and nominations
as the best middleweight amateur in Colorado and fight of the year for his
knock down drag out victory over “One- FC” veteran Kaleo Gambill of Hawaii. His most recent string of wins included a
quick stoppage over previously undefeated Pete Quezada on the Jacksons MMA
series followed by a title win via Fight Brigade championships in late
2012. Charboneau adds, “To say this kid
is talented doesn’t do him justice.” “He
comes to fight the best. His few losses
have only been to decision with one exception and that includes his debut
against current TUF fighter Gilbert Smith.
He is handsome, well spoken, volunteers as spokesman for Bully
Management and other community orgs and reaches that crossover Spanish speaking
audience that every major brand/ promotion wants these days.” Jose
Caro seeks to join the ranks of other Mexican greats like Cain Velasquez in the
coming years and experience gained at Team Quest will be a major step in the
right direction for a man known as “The Fire.”
