LOS ANGELES This content is protected - After a whirlwind three-year journey that has taken him from Florida to New York, California, Texas and Nevada, highly-touted Puerto Rican featherweight prospect Carlos Ivan Velasquez will return to fight in his hometown of Cataño for the first time as a pro when he faces Eduardo Arcos of Sonora, Mexico on Friday, July 16, in the ten round main event of TeleFutura's "Sólo Boxeo Tecate" at the Coliseo Cosme Beitia Salamo. Carlos "Ivan" Velasqez (12-0-10 Ko's) is rightfully seen as one of the featherweight division's brightest prospects and for a good reason,considering his talent,power and perfect pro record. In April,the 25 year old scored a devastating fourth rnd knockout over veteran Ira Terry,and he can't wait to put on a show for his fans when he faces Arcos.............................!ANOTHER PUERTO RICAN MONSTER IS BREWING!
This is going to be another great Friday Night of Boxing. I saw Velasquez last year ringside. It wasn't a great performance because his opponent held for the whole fight, but he has nice skills. He is a very bright prospect and a prospect that has been under the radar thus far.
