Light welterweight prospects, Don Juan Futrell, 21-3-2 (10), and Hector Alatorre, 15-5 (5), settle the score in a rematch at the Tachi Palace Casino in Lemore CA, on October 23, 2008. On the line will be the vacant WBC USNBC light welterweight title, a title Futrell captured in their first meeting. Futrell won decisively with unanimous scores of 96-91, 96-91, 95-92.
Unbeaten in his last eight fights, Futrell will look to repeat his dominance over Alatorre. "I'm going to knock him out this time," said a confident Futrell, "I've trained hard for this fight and I'm coming to win."
This bout is promoted by Goossen Tutor Promotions in association with the Tachi Palace Casino. For ticket information call the Tachi Palace Box Office at (559) 924-7751 or the Tickets.com call center at 1(800) 225-2277.
