BARELY three weeks before the much-anticipated boxing event between People’s Champ Manny Pacquiao and Mexican sensation Jorge Solis, Top Rank has finally laid out the complete line-up of fights that will pave the way for the upcoming boxing phenomenon dubbed Blaze of Glory.
Fil-Am Brian Viloria, a familiar name in boxing chronicles, is listed in the must-see undercard series.
The 27-year-old Viloria is a former world champion and is ranked number one by the WBC. He is slated to fight Mexico’s Edgar Sosa, ranked 2nd by the WBC, in a 12-round fight to determine who will take the vacant WBC light flyweight championship title.
Undefeated welterweight contender Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., son of Mexican icon and former three-division world champion Julio Cesar Chavez will also be part of the undercard series. He is set to face Anthony Shuler of Indianapolis who is toting a 20-4-1, win-loss-draw record that includes 14 KOs.
And finally, a Mexican civil war is set to explode between reigning WBC super flyweight champion Cristian Mijares and two-time world-champion and current number one contender Jorge “El Travieso” Arce.
