For enthusiasts of the lower-weight classes, this is a treat. Mares is well known to U.S. fans, following a successful winning run in the Showtime bantamweight tournament and two more subsequent high-profile wins. Moreno, meanwhile, has been tucked away mostly in Central and South America. Make no mistake, however, because Moreno is a top-notch campaigner.

With a pair of impressive wins on U.S. soil on Mares undercards, Moreno increased his visibility and now he gets his shot to register his first really big win. Give Mares credit.

Moreno’s merit as a fighter sev...
