Ponce De Leon vs. Escalante Will Be On Mosley-Mora Undercard

This will be a very exciting fight. Ponce De Leon kinda got labeled as a scub do the way Lopez blew him out the water but since then has shown that he is a better fighter than that. Escalante is a very exciting fighter as well so this should be a good action pack fight.

Daniel Ponce De Leon and Antonio Escalante will hook up in a featherweight eliminator Sept. 18 (HBO PPV) on the Shane Mosley-Sergio Mora undercard, Golden Boy's Eric Gomez told ESPN.com. Ponce De Leon was slated to face Miguel Roman (who lost to Escalante in a February fight of the year candidate), but Gomez pulled the plug on the fight because he said that although Roman agreed, he hadn't returned his contract. That prompted Gomez to step up efforts to match Ponce De Leon and Escalante, a fight Escalante manager Lester Bedford has wanted. "It's been agreed upon and now we're putting it on paper," Gomez said. "It's icing on the cake for this show." Escalante was also weighing an offer to fight Celestino Caballero on HBO in November on Andre Berto's undercard. http://espn.go.com/sports/boxing/not...ps-land-giants

Great ****in fight, Escalante never makes for a bad fight and Ponce De Leon can crack.

I noticed that too, that's why I think he can get a stoppage.

Escalante brutalized Lock in a fight that could have been stopped several times. Also, stopped a pretty good boxer Gary Starks Jr. and Mike Oliver. Walked all 3 of them down.

If his chin can hold up and he doesn't get caught with anything too ******, he's going to stop him late. The kid has heart though, so even if he gets hurt, he might be able to fight through it.
