Looking to become a top 5 world contender in the heavyweight division is the WBC #11 ranked and WBC CABOFE champion, Manuel "El Toro" Quezada (27-4, 17 KOs). Standing in Quezada's way is the WBC #17 rated and former NABF Heavyweight Champion, Travis Walker (30-2-1, 25 KOs). Riding a 16-fight winning streak, Quezada puts his title and world ranking on the line when the two warriors take center stage in a twelve round main event, Thursday, July 16 at the Tachi Palace Hotel and Casino in Lemoore, California.
Quezada, who's under the study of world renowned trainer Joe Goossen, opened his training camp at Goossen's Van Nuys gym. With a little more than a week to go before they step in the ring, Quezada feels confident in his ability to triumph over Walker. "This is the biggest and toughest fight of my career," said Quezada. "I know to win this fight, I'll have to stick to the game plan that Joe provided, and I prepared to do just that. I've been getting great sparring with Malik Scott and Javier Mora preparing for Walker. I don't see this fight going the distance. Someone is going to get knocked out."
The winner of this bout becomes a viable challenger to the world championship.
