The first event will feature Mexico’s 3-time world super flyweight champion Cristian “El Diamante” Mijares (53-8-2, 26 קאָס) who takes on his fellow countryman, ונדעפעאַטעד Andres “Jaguarito” Gutierrez, in the 12-round main event for the vacant World Boxing Council (וובק) Silver Featherweight Championship.
WBC No. 8 rated Mijares (פּיקטשערד צו לינקס), 34, is a former IBF, WBA Super and WBC super flyweight world champion. The future Hall of Fame candidate is 11-5 in world title fights with key victories over Chatchai Sasakul, דזשאָרגע אַרסע און Katsushige Kawashima (צוויי מאָל).
The 22-year-old Gutierrez (pictures to right), רייטאַד ניט קיין. 6 דורך די וובק, turned pro at 15.

The 23-year-old Jimenez is a former FECARBOX bantamweight and Mexican flyweight champion who, two fights ago, took a 10-round decision from 28-0 Ivan Morales. The highlight of Aligarbes’ pro career to date is stopping Angelito Merin in the second round of their WBC Youth World super flyweight title fight in 2013.
Former WBA female bantamweight champion Irma “Torbellino” גאַרסיאַ (13-1-, 2 קאָס) מיץ Miriam “La Patrona” Avila (5-6, 2 קאָס) in a 10-round match.
