Their respective opponents, battle-tested veterans in Mexico's Jose Luis Araiza 29-7-1, (22 KOs) and Dominican Leivi Brea 19-10-3 (10KOs) will need all of their experience and guile in order to defeat the younger men.
The 21-year old Jessie Magdaleno 13-0, (9KOs), hailing from Las Vegas Nevada, and younger brother of world ranked Super Featherweight Diego Magdaleno is a southpaw with huge power in both fists will face off against Leivi Brea, and will be more than happy to test his opponent's whiskers, as he looks to add another KO win to his ledger.
