12/15/07 - This will be the 7th country that Linares has fought in a list that includes

Japan
USA
Venezuala
Panama
Argentina
and
South Korea

He will be fighting Gamaliel Diaz 22-6-2 (ranked #1 by the WBC)
Linares has impressed me with his handling of Oscar Larios and his willingness to travel all over to fight.
Edwin Valero is supposed to be on the undercard as well.
