According to Dan Rafael of espn.com, Junior Lightweight champion Miguel Berchelt will face Carlo Magali on February 10th in Cancyn, Mexico.
“I’m ready for whoever,” Berchelt said. “I’m ready to make my second defense before my people, fulfilling my dream. I know that my challenger will come out with everything, like every Filipino, ready to die on the ring. But I’ll be ready for whatever he brings. The important thing is to win and provide a great show.”
“It’s a dream opportunity, which I could not turn down,” Magali said of landing the title shot. “Fortunately, I’m always in the gym, and I know who Berchelt is. He’s very good for my style, and we’re going to bring the world title back to the Philippines.”
