LIITR Weekend Picks


Feather fisted Eloy Perez has made a steady climb up the sanctioning bodies world rankings with solid wins over talented prospects and ranked contenders. Daniel Jimenez is best remembered for handing a then 9-0 Vicente Escobedo (23-3-0, 14 KOs) his first loss back in 2006, since then Jimenez has gone just 6-2 with consistent streaks of inactivity. Win in impressive fashion and Eloy Perez could be looking at a world title shot against the winner of November’s World Boxing Organization title fight between defending champion Ricky Burns (32-2-0, 9 KOs) and challenger Adrien Broner (21-0-0, 17 KOs).
