Top Rank was facing problems finding a suitable opponent for rising Puerto Rican prospect Felix Verdejo (13-0-10 KO's), but Verdejo’s trainer, Ricky Marquez, indicated that they already found a oponent for his boxer's next fight, which is scheduled for August 16 at the Coliseo Hector Sola Bezares of Caguas, Puerto Rico.

 

Verdejo's opponent will be Chilean boxer Oscar Bravo, who resides in Las Vegas. Bravo has a respectable record of 26 professional bouts, with 21 wins and losing only five with 9 knockouts.

 

Bravo is also an experienced fighter who traded punches with boxers such as Diego Magdaleno, Emmanuel Tagoe and Will Tomlinson. He won all of his fights in his native Chile and suffered all of his defeats on the road. 

 

Bravo has never been stopped in his 26 fights.
