"Real Warriors" Press Conference

On February 18th at the Aladdin Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, WBO welterweight champion and most avoided fighter in the sport today, Antonio Margarito, will be squaring off against the dangerous Manuel Gomez.  On the same night, Brian “the Hawaiian Punch” Viloria will defend his WBC junior flyweight title for the first time as he goes up against former WBC champ Jose Aguirre.  Boxingtalk’s own Darren Nichols was on hand at the press conference in Las Vegas this past weekend to capture footage of what Margarito and Viloria had to say about their respective fights. In exclusive one-on-one interviews, Margarito shares his thoughts on why he feels he is so avoided by fighters in his weight class and who he would like to fight if he had a choice between Mayweather and Judah, while Viloria gives us his take on how preparation is progressing for his first title defense and when he feels the highly anticipated matchup could take place between he and Jorge Arce. You don't want to miss it!
