“All eyes will be on the new fabulous ARENA QUEQUI with these two great title fights” said mexican promoter Pepe Gomez.

Javier Prieto: “I know I’m a better boxer than Ivan Cano and I will prove it,” proclaimed Prieto. “I’m in great shape and I return to the gym with the firm intention to take the win. I am not going to give him anything.”

Ivan “MACANON” Cano: “I am very happy to go to Cancun, I will give good show. I know there will be many people who like my boxing and will support me this Saturday so don’t rise from your seats, I’m going for a knockout in the first round”.

Also in what will be a tremendous fight, Mexico’s WBC FECARBOX bantamweight champion, Edgar “POWER” Jimenez, will be defending against Noé “Cortito” Martínez, from Aguas Calientes, Mexico.
