Panamanian Felix Montenegro and Colombian Hernan Alarcon will fight for the World Boxing Association (WBA) bantamweight Fedecentro championship this Thursday at the Pandeportes Combat Coliseum in Panama City.
The experienced local fighter is going through the best moment of his career after six wins in a row and getting this opportunity for the belt.
He will try to take advantage of the home advantage and the motivation of his streak to get a victory and win the championship in the Panamanian capital.
Alarcón, a native of Barranquilla, is undefeated in his second experience away from home. He already had a first international fight two years ago, just in Panama, where he defeated Alexander Armuelles by knockout in his second professional fight.
Montenegro has 12 wins, 9 losses, 1 draw and 8 knockouts, while Alarcon comes in with 7 wins and 6 knockouts.
