Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz will fight against substitute opponent Omar Salcido after his originally scheduled opponent, Angel Fierro, had health problems while cutting weight for their light welterweight rematch this Saturday at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
Salcido replaces FIERRO -SUPPLOSTONE
Salcido (20-2, 14 COs) was already on Saturday’s map and fought Brian Gallegos in an eight-year-old. It was a simple matter to move Salcido, 25, in the fight with ‘Pitbull’ Cruz (27-3-1, 18 COs).
Salcido’s power threaten cruz
It is unclear whether the fight will be for 12 rounds. That was what Pitbull Cruz’s fight with Fierero was scheduled for. Cruz would be difficult for Cruz to fight a large puncher like Salcido in a 12-round fight without preparation for his style.
Cruz is a good fighter, but he is there to beat. Salcido has the kind of power that will cause him to descend. However, Pitbull’s chin can allow him to let the full distance with Salcido, but it still won’t be easy.
Lance pugmire report That Salcido will be the substitute opponent for Cruz on Saturday’s map on July 19 on PBC Prime video Ppv. Salcido is probably a better fighter than Fierro, and there is a real chance that ‘Pitbull’ Cruz could lose this battle.
Salcido arrives on a wide unanimous decision of 10 round to the 2020 -year -round Olympic Medal, Andy Cruz on January 25. He gave Cruz a very difficult test in that battle and landed a lot of bombs despite the excellent defense of the Cuban.
In Salcido’s struggle for that, he knocked out the highly capable Super Eweweight Chris Colbert in the ninth round last October. Salcido struck Cobert with power and upset a shock that surprised many fans. He came nowhere to win the New Yorker victory.
The organizers of Saturday’s event should have expected Fierro’s weight problems. He looked horribly in February in February at the weigh -in for his previous battle against Pitbull Cruz. You can see that you are looking at Fierro (23-3-2, 18 COs) that his days were a 140 pound at the end.
