Tijuana has a new world champion. Nothing new for the city since over the years it has had dozens. In Tijuana you can throw a penny out the window as you drive on her now more mellow streets and probably hit a former champion. “Dinamita” Estrada, Raul “Jibaro” Perez, Manuel “Mantecas” Medina, Antonio Margarito, Alejandro [...]
In quite possibly the fight of the year and most certainly the most dramatic ending in 2011, Tijuana’s own Antonio DeMarco (26-2-1, 19KOs) stopped a tough as nails Jorge Linares (31-2, 20KOs) of Venezuela in the eleventh round to capture the vacant WBC lightweight title. The scheduled twelve round war was the semi-main event of [...]
