By Rafael Soto

The headline bout this Saturday as part of the Tecate Boxing Tour in Monterrey, Mexico, Francisco "Panchito" Arce (30-6-2, 21 KOs) is more than ready to soar. He faces experienced Isidro 'Chino' García (25-7-2, 8 KOs) in a contest scheduled for twelve rounds for the super bantamweight title of the North American Boxing Federation (NABF, for short in English) and will be broadcast by TV Azteca, as part of a promotion by Zanfer.

"I thought I had beat Cristian Mijares in my last fight, but we have to turn the page and focus on this fight with 'Chino' Garcia, and I beat him once in 2009, but was asked to do a rematch, so I trained well and I'll beat him again, providing a great performance to the public, "said Arce.

"All my training I did in the Romanza Gym in Mexico City, but I came two weeks early to acclimatise in Monterrey and to do some promotion. It will be a great fight. If anything, people won't complain about a lack of a show because I'm willing to die on the line."

Arce trained under the orders of the renowned Don" Nacho" Beristain.

Also on the card,  Alejandro 'Chosen' Barrera (18-0, 17 KOs), who faces Candelario Herrera Coahuila fo 10 rounds at welterweight.

The fight that has all the makings of a war is between the idol Sergio "Tamaulipas" Torres and Ernesto Morales agreed for ten rounds at lightweight. There will be 4 more fights.
