Puerto Rican bantamweight prospect Emmanuel "Manny" Rodriguez (13-0, 9KOs) will make his American debut on the Erislandy Lara vs. Jan Zaveck undercard on November 25th from the Hialeah Park Race Track in Hialeah, Florida.
Rodriguez, who recently signed on with manager/adviser Al Haymon, will face Eliecer Aquino (17-1-1, 11KOs) as part of the Premier Boxing Champions on ESPN broadcast.
In his last time out, Aquino lost a very close ten round majority decision to Adam Lopez in a ShoBox televised bout on July 17th.
Rodriguez has already fought three times in 2015. All three of his fights, against Gabor Molnard in February, Luis Hinojosa in May and Alex Rangel in August - have ended by knockout in seven rounds or less. Rodriguez has never been past eight rounds.
