Zayas has headlined cards at Madison Square Garden and is seen as the standard-bearer for Puerto Rican boxing in the post-Cotto era. His rapid rise from prospect to unified champion in under seven years is a testament to his talent and dedication.

AwardsZayas has won Prospect of the Year honors from multiple boxing organizations in 2023. He has held the NABF and WBO NABO super welterweight titles, and became WBO champion in 2025 before unifying with the WBA belt in 2026.
