“Saturday, Marec 28 is going to be a night full of exciting action headlined by Mexican knockout artist Luis Nery beginning his path toward a world title at super bantamweight against an undefeated Mexican contender in Aaron Alameda,”Povedal Tom Brown, Prezident TGB Promotions. “Adding in the heavyweight showdown between Otto Wallin and Lucas Browne, plus a rematch of young light heavyweights Joseph George and Marcos Escudero, fight night at Park MGM in Las Vegas is sure to deliver explosive battles from start to finish.”
Nery (30-0, 24 KO) is a power puncher who has stopped his last 11 opponents and 15 z jeho poslednej 16. The 25-year-old southpaw from Tijuana, Mexico scored a dominant stoppage victory over former champion McJoe Arroyo in March and returned in July to stop former champion Juan Carlos Payano. He scored a TKO victory over Shinsuke Yamanaka to win the bantamweight world title in 2018 and will now move up to 122 pounds to seek a world title in a second weight class.
“I’m excited to fight on SHOWTIME and I’m planning on another knockout victory to prove to everyone that I’m one of the kings of the super bantamweight division,” said Nery. “I know that I can knock out any fighter at 118 alebo 122 libier, and I’m hungrier than ever to prove that I’m one of boxing’s great Mexican champions. My goal is to continue to put on great performances for the fans and I’m ready to fight anyone who is willing to step up to the challenge.”
Representing Sonora, Mexiko, Alameda (25-0, 13 KO) is unbeaten since turning pro in 2014 after a strong amateur career, and will step up in competition as he faces Nery for a shot at a world title bout. The 26-year-old is ranked No. 12 by the WBC and most recently knocked out Jordan Escobar in April 2019, after three victories in 2018. Alameda will fight in the U.S. for the second time when he enters the ring on March 28, after scoring a body shot knockout over Andre Wilson in a January 2016 bout in Los Angeles.
“I’m very excited to be making my SHOWTIME debut in the main event against a great fighter,” said Alameda. “All of the years of training and fighting have brought me to this fight on March 28. Nery is a Mexican warrior like myself and I can’t wait to lock horns with him and give the fans great action all the way until the final bell.”
29-ročný Wallin (20-1, 13 KO) will return to the ring in Las Vegas, where he nearly defeated former unified heavyweight champion Tyson Fury in September, keď otvoril príšerný rez cez pravé oko Furyho legálnym úderom, ktorý takmer zastavil boj. While Wallin dropped the decision, preukázal svoje odhodlanie ako potenciálny budúci šampión v ťažkej váhe. Zastupujúci svoj rodný Sundsvall, Švédsko, Wallin trénuje v New Yorku s bývalým šampiónom Joey Gamache. Wallin’s last fight in Las Vegas was his second in the U.S., after his debut on SHOWTIME in April ended in a no contest because of a cut suffered by his opponent in the first round.
Fighting out of New South Wales, Austrália, Browne (29-2, 25 KO) naposledy dosiahol vyraďovacie víťazstvo nad Johnom Hopoateom v novembri, his second win of 2019. Vyhral štyri zo svojich posledných piatich zápasov, s jeho jedinými stratami v kariére prišli do Veľkej Británie Dillian Whyte a David Allen. Browne won his first 25 Pre boje, vrátane zastavenia Ruslana Čagajeva v 2016 to capture a WBA Heavyweight Championship. He will be making his U.S. debut.
George (10-0, 6 KO) vyšiel víťazom v bitke vtedy neporazených bojovníkov, keď v novembri SHOWTIME čelil Escuderu, víťazstvo na základe rozhodovania na základe rozhodnutia. Tridsaťročný mladík začal boxovať, až keď bol 19 a riadi ho ofenzívny pochôdzkar Washington Redskins All-Pro Trent Williams, a trénoval v Houstone tímom NFL All-Pro bežiacim späť Adrian Peterson a James Cooper. George sa bude usilovať o prechod z vyhliadky na uchádzača tým, že v marci opäť porazí Escudero 28.
Escudero (10-1, 9 KO) sa bude snažiť odraziť a vyrovnať skóre proti Georgovi, and in turn bolster his own position in the light heavyweight division. The 26-year-old from Buenos Aires, Argentina has fought primarily in the U.S. since turning pro in 2017. His amateur career saw him become a national champion in Argentina in 2014 and represent his country in the Pan-Am Games in 2015. Escudero currently trains in Miami and scored three stoppage wins in 2019 before facing George for the first time.
