Fernando Montiel vs Rafael Concepcion set for July 17th

It appears there is finally an agreement for Fernando Montiel to defend his WBC and WBO bantamweight world titles against former WBA super flyweight champion Rafael Conception on July 17 in Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas, Mexico. In the co-feature, super featherweight prospect Joksan Hernández is lined up to face Rogers Mtagwa. Also seeing action is Salvador Sanchez Jr. Montiel is already training for the bout in Los Mochis, Sinaloa. Sources report that an agreement was reached after the Concepcion had initially rejected the first offer.

Montiel did such a good job on Hasegawa, he looked sharp, moved well, great ring generalship and he was punching with authority. I felt the stoppage was right as Hasegawa was out on his feet. I think the importance of that spectacular victory has gone a bit unsung in the boxing world but as it stands he is currently at the top of a very exciting Bantamweight division. i think Montiel will claim another inside the distance stoppage against Concepcion

Hoping Top Rank Live is aired out here for this card, have barely seen it airing bc of MLB games

Montiel impressed me in his last fight, he's riding high and should beat Concepcion.

Do you get Fox Sports Espanol? I usually just watch Top Rank Live on that, no baseball overruns plus hot Latina's in the commercials (not as good as the telenovela ad's on Telefutra or Telemundo)

Should be a fun fight to watch, hopefully Montiel gets the winner of the Moreno-Cermeno rematch or Donaire next.

Nah I dont, I tried to get it through Dish Network but they dont offer it by itself, have to order a Latino Package that runs like $60

So Im stuck with what Comcast Sports shows me, sometimes they air it the day of, a day late, or sometimes a week later

Ahh, Comcast sucks, worst customer service. We ended up getting FIOS at my house, if I get a new/better job soon i'm going to get the premium service so I can get kickboxing from the Thai/Cambodian channels and local Filipino fights on those channels.
