Hall of Fame announcers Jim “J.R.” Ross og Al Bernstein will call the action from ringside, along with roving reporter Sean Wheelock, på CBS Sports Network.
The 29-year-old Blanco, fighting out of the Dominican Republic by way of Puerto Rico, captured his NABA US title belt this past January, taking an 8-round unanimous decision from previously unbeaten Angel Luis Ocasio (8-0-2). In his last fight in July, Blanco stopped another undefeated challenger, 14-0 Mario Beltre, in the second round for the Dominican Republic lightweight championship.
New Orleans-native Brock, who learned how to box serving a 15-year prison sentence, besejret Chuy gutierrez (14-0-1) in the June 10th “Knockout Night at the D” show to retain his World Boxing Council (WBC) United States lightweight title in his first title defense. Brock, 35, originally captured his title belt in 2015, by way of an 8-round unanimous decision over Oscar Valenzuela (9-1-1).
I 8-runde co-feature, Puerto Rican junior middleweight Daniel “El Duro” Cross(11-1, 10 KOS) takes on former Mexico welterweight champion Norberto Gonzalez(22-8, 13 KOS).
Cross, who has knocked out 10 sin 11 victims, is the reigning World Boxing Organization (WBO) Latino junior middleweight champion having captured that vacant title in his last fight (Juli 17, 2015), standsning Aaron Garcia (14-3-1) in the second round in Florida.
Always dangerous Gonzalez is a proven upset specialist with victories against 30-3 Javier Francisco Maciel (DEC8), 20-1 Michael Oliveira (DEC10), 18-2 Antonio Arras (DEC10), og 22-3-1 Joel Juarez (DEC6).
In the television opener, rising junior lightweight Randy Moreno (6-0, 5 KOS) faces Mexican veteran Daniel Perales (7-5-1, 4 KOS) in a scheduled 6-round bout. Fighting once again at home in Las Vegas, Moreno will be in his first 6-rounder, as well as on national television for the first time. The gifted 20-year-old is coming off explosive back-to-back knockouts of Fabian Alaniz og Gaige Ireland in a pair of “Knockout Night at the D” events in September.
