Ciudad Obregon, Sonora - WBA flyweight champion Hernán "Tyson" Marquez is back in the gym, training for a title defense in the month of the March. The date and venue will be announced shortly by Zanfer Promotions. Marquez is training in the same gym as prospect David Sanchez and WBO featherweight champion Orlando "Siri" Salido, who prepares for his March 10th rematch with Juan Manuel Lopez. Marquez hopes to get the biggest names possible in 2012, including Brian Viloria, Giovani Segura and others. Marquez wants Viloria, the WBO's champion, in the summer.
"Next week, we hope to finalize my challenger. For now we're very focused in the gym. We are very happy with my training in Oregon with coach Santos Moreno. We have very good team and that motivates me. I want to unify the titles, against the best and be the best of my division. I want Viloria, Pongsaklek and Segura, so I stepped up my training efforts. Although we are focused on my defense in March, I have asked my promoter to fight Viloria in June or July if all goes well," Marquez said.
