Francisco "Panchito" Arce will go for his first world title when he goes for the interim-bantamweight title of the World Boxing Association (WBA) on May 14 against countryman Hugo "Cuatito" Ruiz - a major battle that promises to have an explosive ending. With 27 matches won, 25 of these by way of knockout in exchange for a sole defeat, Hugo Ruiz promises to have a long reign and aims for a big win against his compatriot "Panchito" Arce. But, Arce is in remarkable shape and plans to upset the odds by winning the title before his hometown crowd in Los Mochis.
