Former world champion Eric Morel (45-2-0 23KOs) is ready for his next ring appearance on December 3 at the Honda Center in California, as part of the undercard to the bantamweight bout title rematch between Abner Mares (22-0 -1 and 13KO's) and Joseph Agbeko (28-2, 22 KO's). Also on the card, Anselmo Moreno (31-1-1, 11 KO's) and Vic Darchinyan (37-3-1 and 27KO's) will clash for the WBA and IBO bantamweight belts.
According to his legal counsel, Gaby Penagarícano, Morel will be fighting against either of the winners from the Showtime televised doubleheader, and that opportunity will likely take place in the first quarter of 2012.
"Eric is going to fight in California on December 3 on the undercard of the show being staged by Golden Boy Promotions, which has big plans for him. He's done about four fights and is now ready to go for the title fights. Eric is on the agenda to fight in the first three months of 2012 against the winner of Mares-Agbeko or Darchinyan-Moreno. Those are great fights of interest to HBO and Showtime," he said.
