PhilBoxing.com




The famous Mexican coach and Hall of Fame, Don Nacho Beristain, said his fighter Jessica "Kika" Chavez will win next July 23 in the international "Oasis Arena" of Cancun, Quintana Roo, M?xico, when she defends for the third time the WBC flyweight world championship against former world champion Esmeralda "La Joya" Moreno.

"I worry a bit that Esmeralda comes from a very good run, but I'm sure Kika will get the victory on July 23, now I realize how far Kika has come up with her efforts, she has become the best flyweight fighter in the world, this will be a great fight," said the famous trainer.

Jessica Chavez, will step in to the ring as WBC flyweight world champion, a title she won last September by defeating Arely Muci?o and has successfully defended twice against the Italian Simona Galassi and Argentina Vanessa Taborda.

It is noteworthy that Jessica is regarded as the best pound for pound in the world, after her resounding victory over then undefeated and double world champion Yesica "Tuti" Bopp from Argentina.

On the other hand, Esmeralda Moreno will seek her second WBC world title at 112 pounds.

The event organized by Promociones del Pueblo in association with Cancun Boxing, will showcase two of the best female fighters pound for pound in the world, who will headline the evening "GO ON GET IN THE RING", which will be transmitted to all country by sports Televisa.
