Huge boxing gala tonight at the Grand Mayan in Nuevo Vallarta with the WBA light flyweight and Interim WBA lightweight titles on offer.
California's big punching Giovanni Segura, 20-1-1 (16), won the Interim WBA light fly belt in March by stopping Cesar Canchilla in a rematch and will meet Filipino campaigner and three-time world title challenger Juanito Rubillar, 46-12-7 (22), for the full WBA crown.
Another California, undefeated Urbano Antillion, 26-0 (19), is in action as he gets to grips with Venezuela's Miguel Acosta, 25-3-2 (19), for the Interim WBA lightweight trophy.
Former WBC heavyweight champion Sam Peter, 30-3 (23), comes back from two straight losses to take on 38 year old journeyman Marcus McGee, 22-16 (11), in an eight rounder.
