Colorado to host boxing on May 18th

Press Release: On May 18, 2007, at the Broomfield Event Center in Broomfield, Colorado, Adrian "Juanito" Mora (18-0-1, 10 KOs) will fight Marc Thompson (15-1, 12 KOs) for a minor light welterweight championship. Mora's most notable victory to date is a 10-round decision against Steve "The Mongoose" Quinonez (30-7-1). "I feel real good about fighting again at home," Mora said. "My last three fights have been out of state and my fans have been asking when I'd be fighting back home again. I'm a boxer-puncher who isn't a one-punch knockout guy, but I have equal power in both hands and love throwing combinations. I can fight at light welterweight or lightweight. I've fought as high as 147. This is a business and I've fought from 135 to 147, but I think my natural fighting weight is 135. In my last fight, at 140, I only weighed 137 and I could have easily gotten down to 135 without any problems. My hometown, Thornton, is only about 15-20 minutes from Broomfield and I expect to have a lot of fans there on May 18."
 
Also scheduled to fight on the "Rocky Mountain Mayhem: Return of the Champ" card are Stevie "Lil' But Bad" Johnson, heavyweight  Cedric "The Bos" Boswell (23-1, 18 KOs), as well as welterweight  Alexis Camacho (14-0, 13 KOs), lightweight prospect Jaime "Superfly" Sandoval (14-1, 12 KOs) and Adrian Mora's brother, junior welterweight Anthony "The Matrix" Mora (15-1, 10 KOs).
