Cigarroa initially wouldn't permit the fight at the Sun Bowl after a federal law enforcement report warned that members of warring Mexican drug cartels may attend. El Paso officials complained, and after meeting with local and federal law enforcement, Cigarroa agreed Friday to allow the school to host the fight.
El Paso officials welcomed the reversal but were frustrated by the alcohol ban at an event expected to draw more than 40,000 people.
