Nery ready to defend WBC Silver crown

Tijuana native Luis “Pantera” Nery will close year with a fight on his continuing road back, seeking absolute title glory once again.

Nery (27-0-0, 21 ko’s) will be defending his World Boxing Council silver championship, fighting  Argentinian Carlos Jorge Luis Sardinez (13-1-0, 2 ko’s) on Saturday, December 1, in Coahuila, Mexico.

“Pantera” wants to be WBC bantamweight champion anew, but before all that he must  defeat “Baby” Sardínez, a fighter of sound technique and speed, and in only a few  professional fights, he captured the  the South American  championship. He also has plenty of  experience as an amateur.

Carlos Jorge, in his most recent fight, overcame Carlos Farías by decision. Luis, on the other hand, has knocked out Jason Camoy in three rounds in October in Tijuana.
