A new opponent has been scheduled for WBC CABOFE Middleweight Champion, Miguel Espino as he's set to defend his title at the Double Tree Hotel in Bakersfield Ca on September 21, 2007.
After Juan De La Rosa pulled out with an injury, Ray Ortega steps in to face the North Hollywood native in a rematch of their last fight, where Espino (16-2-1 5 KO's) won a unanimous decision.
When Ortega (12-5-3 7 KO's) got word that De La Rosa was out he called promoter Manny Cota demanding a rematch as he stated, "I feel I was robbed in my last fight. This time I'm not going to leave it in the hands of the judges. I going to knock him out and end his winning streak and take his belt."
Espino, who's riding a 7 fight winning streak is excited to step back in the ring and defend this title as he mentioned, "I was looking forward to fighting De La Rosa, but he got injured and now my focus is on Ortega. I won by decision last time we met but this time around I'm going to stop him."
This bout is promoted by Cota Boxing Promotions. Tickets priced at $50 (ringside) $35 (general) can be purchased by calling (818) 274-7129.
