Punching the time clock and plenty of two way trading, at the Palenque of the Horse Fair of Texcoco on Saturday night.
The extravaganza is presented by Promociones del Pueblo with the support of Cavall Sport and Playboy Mexico and of course with the support of the City of Texcoco.
In the main event, Eduardo ‘Rocky’ Hernández and Rafael ‘Potro’ Hernández clash. The Young Rock, who’s brilliantly developing into a star an, is defending his WBC Youth World title.
‘Rocky’ was pleased by the reception he has had, quipping: “I’m going to show why I’m where I am; I have a dream and no one is going to take it from me. I have a great rival in front of me and I like his attitude because I want a fight that does not end before the full 10 rounds,”
The ‘Potro’ is not pottering around, or being a blowhard! He tersely commented: “I come well prepared to be victorious, it’s not my first time in Mexico. Everyone knows that I like to exchange blows.
“I’m here to take that title all the way back to Venezuela, ‘Rocky’ is a very good fighter and I have always liked to fight with the good ones, but he will lose in front of his very own people!”
In the semifinal clash, former world champion Rodrigo ‘Gato’ Guerrero will seek to conquer the FECOMBOX title recognized by the World Boxing Council against Mexico’s Salvador ‘Pelón’ Juarez.
