For every young fighter trying to make their ascension up the rankings ladder, there is a crafty and hard hitting veteran looking to make their name by knocking him down.
This is exactly the stage that is set for the lightweight bout tonight at the Pechanga Resort and Casino in Temecula, CA, as the highly touted Mexican prospect Marvin Quintero, 16-1 (12), attempts to take a step up that rankings ladder against the heavy handed Tyrone Harris, 23-5 (12).
Many in the boxing community have been drawing comparisons between Quintero and future Hall of Famer Marco Antonio Barrera.
While that may be a bit premature, his most recent victories over Wes Ferguson, 20-4-1 (6), and Nick Casal, 19-4 (15), have shown that Quintero is maturing as a fighter and utilizing both his power and boxing abilities in the same manner that his fellow countryman did in the early stages of his career.
Quintero is riding high off of twelve straight victories since his lone defeat; however his opponent will be far and away the toughest test to date.
Although Harris was stopped in his last bout, his resume reads like a who’s who of some of division's top fighters. With bouts against names like Urbano Antillon, 26-1 (19), Damian Fuller, 30-6 (14), Koba Gogoladze, 20-3 (8), and former world titlist Stevie Johnston, 42-6 (18), Harris is far and away the more experienced fighter.

Former unified welter and IBF 154 pound champ Cory Spinks clashed with local upstart Deandre Latimore in a battle of southpaws for the vacant IBF Light Middleweight title on a good Don King card in font of 9,000 fans at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, MO.
Latimore had parlayed an upset of Sechew Powell last June into the clash with Spinks and the hard-punching 23 year old made the most of his opportunity last night.
Spinks was canvassed when he walked into a right hook in the first frame but beat the count and saw out the round through his long big-fight experience.
Latimore found the quicksilver Spinks a difficult target to hit cleanly with more than a smattering of shots over the next few rounds while the former champion snuck in good counter shots to both head and body at times. More...
