Making his 2011 debut after an impressive 2010 showing of three solid victories, undefeated featherweight titleholder Yuriorkis Gamboa (19-0, 15 KOs) of Miami, Fla. has put on some spectacular ring performances over the past two years. In this 12-round bout, he will look to show the consistency and all-around skills of an elite champion. Veteran Jorge Solis (40-2-2, 29 KOs) of Guadalajara, Mexico has fought his last eight bouts in his home country, winning seven, and is making his first trip to the U.S. since meeting Manny Pacquiao at San Antonio?s Alamodome in 2007.
The opening bout features two undefeated featherweights looking to excel in the national spotlight, as 24-year-old Matt Remillard (23-0, 13 KOs) of Hartford, Ct. battles 23-year-old Mikey Garcia (24-0, 20 KOs) of Oxnard, Cal. This 126-pound tilt is scheduled for 12 rounds.
