Jaime Herrera (12-2) has advised BoxingScene.com that he will face undefeated prospect Egidijus Kavaliauskas (8-0) on December 13th on the Tim Bradley-Diego Chaves undercard that takes place at the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas. Mauricio Herrera-Jose Benavidez and Matt Korobov-Andy Lee round out the HBO televised tripleheader.
Herrera has been on quite a roll and should present the Lithuanian with a stiff challenge. He handed Michael Finney (12-1) his first professional defeat in March and then defeated Mike Jones 926-2) in August in Jones first fight in over 2 years. Both victories were by stoppage.
