We have a fantastic main event and a deep card with some exciting young fighters. “What a night in Nottingham when Mauricio Lara beat Leigh Wood to become World champion and he’s a great example of the young talent here that needs to be unearthed and given an opportunity, and all we do as promoters is make great fights and deliver value for fight fans, and these cards see hot prospects and World rated fighters continuously step up and fight the very best in the business.” Angel Fierro – defends WBO NABO Lightweight title against Eduardo Estela “I am delighted to be here in Culiacan.
