DANNY ?SWIFT? GARCIA CHOSEN BY FANS AS THE BOXER WITH THE MOST CAR?CTER

PhilBoxing.com


Votes from ?S?lo Boxeo Tecate? Viewers Place Him Closer to Receiving ?Cintur?n Tecate? Award

NEW YORK (March 4, 2011) ? Not only was Danny Garcia the winner of his fight against John Figueroa during last week?s ?S?lo Boxeo Tecate? broadcast, but the judges at home also decided that he displayed the most character in the ring, earning him the right to compete for the ?Cintur?n Tecate? award. With 81 percent of all votes received from across the nation, our champion for the week enters the competition in second place.

?Cintur?n Tecate? (Tecate Belt) is an award created to support the boxers who display the most car?cter in the ring during the ?S?lo Boxeo Tecate? broadcast each Friday on TeleFutura. Tecate recognizes that the audience at home is the best judge, which is why each text message sent to 55333 counts as a vote for their favorite boxer. To thank participating fans, each text submitted gives them the opportunity to win boxing memorabilia, such as T-shirts, autographed pictures, and even tickets to future ?S?lo Boxeo Tecate? fights. Additionally, adults can cast their vote via the ?S?lo Boxeo Tecate? section of Univision.com.

As contenders in the competition, the boxers who receive the most votes throughout the season will have the opportunity to win an actual ?Cintur?n Tecate? belt, equipment for their gym and donations to a charity of their choice in their name. Current rankings stand as follow:

Ranking, Boxer, % of Votes, Date of Fight
1, Frankie Gomez, 87%, Jan. 14
2, Danny Garcia, 81%, Feb. 25
3, Lucas Matthysse, 80%, Jan. 21
4, Eloy Perez, 70%, Feb. 18
5, Ra?l Hirales Jr., 62%, Jan. 28
6, Michael Perez, 61%, Feb. 4

Tonight, fans can continue to support their favorite boxers by deciding whether former U.S. Olympian Vicente Escobedo (22-3, 14 KO?s) or streaking Colombian veteran Walter Estrada (38-13-1, 25 KO?s) displays the most car?cter during their ?S?lo Boxeo Tecate? appearance at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in Indio, Calif.

To vote, adults at home can watch the Telefutura broadcast of the fight at 11:30 p.m. ET/PT (10:30 p.m. CT) and send a text message to 55333 with B1 to vote for Vicente Escobedo or B2 to support Walter Estrada. Throughout the weekend, votes will also be accepted via the ?S?lo Boxeo Tecate? section of Univision.com.
