A boxing fan since he was a child when he viewed the sport with his grandfather, Espinoza says that he is especially proud of “helping bring the record-breaking Mayweather-Pacquiao event to fruition.” The slugfest shattered all previous pay-per-view records, grossing more than $500 million and was distributed in 175 countries worldwide. A fierce negotiator and passionate sports enthusiast, Espinoza empowers his employees to be free-thinking individuals as he manages the day-to-day activities of Showtime Sports. Outside of the company, he serves on the board of directors for Heart of Los Angeles, a community center for young people to engage in enrichment activities in LA’s Rampart District.
