After two opponents fell through, WBC strawweight champion Carina "La Reina" Moreno will not be defending her title on February 29, 2008 at the Tachi Palace Casino.
"Carina is one of the best pound for pound fighters in the world." said promoter Christian Printup. "Her manager Repo Rick and I will do our best to get her back in the ring."
Moving forward, Carina is looking to fight on March 20, 2008 at the HP Pavilion in San Jose against an opponent to be later announced.
Meanwhile, Jessica "Ragin'" Rakoczy is looking for an opponent to fill in the slot. Matchmaker Repo Rick has been scoping the globe in search for an opponent. "Nobody wants to fight Rakoczy," he said. "It's been very difficult to match her up. We have a nice platform here at the Taichi Palace to put on a fight with Jessica, but no opponent. If anyone wants to get in the ring with Rakoczy, please contact me."
Tickets will be available through Tickets.com or by contacting the Tachi Palace Box Office at (559) 924-7751. This event is brought to you by Goosen Tutor Promotions in assosiation with the Tachi Palace and Casino.
