A change of plans for former world champion Humberto Soto. The boxer will still return on September 28th at the Centennial Stadium in Los Mochis, Sinaloa - but he won't be facing Ali Chebah (35-2, 28 KO's). Instead, Soto (61-8-2, 35 KO's) will be involved in a hometurf war with Mahonri Montes (28-2-1, 21KOs) for the WBC's International Silver junior welterweight title.

This will be Soto's third fight of the year and his fourth since being knocked out by Lucas Matthysse last year. Antonio Lozada Jr. will also appear on the same card.
