POWER PUNCHER JEFFREY FONTANEZ LOOKS FOR ANOTHER KNOCKOUT AGAINST JOHN NATER IN THE
"SÓLO BOXEO TECATE" MAIN EVENT ON OCTOBER 13
FROM JUNCOS, PUERTO RICO
BRAULIO SANTOS TO BATTLE JOHN ALBERTO MOLINA IN
CO-FEATUREDFIGHT FROM COLISEO RAFAEL G. AMALBERT
LOS ANGELES, October 4 - If Caguas' Jeffrey Fontanez has made one thing
clear in just eight professional fights, it's that you better not blink,
because you might miss something. On Saturday, October 13 at Coliseo
Rafael G. Amalbert in Juncos, Puerto Rico, hard-hitting John Nater of
Bayamon, Puerto Rico will attempt to stop the rise of 20-year-old
knockout artist Fontanez in the eight-round main event of TeleFutura's
"Sólo Boxeo Tecate."
In the eight-round co-featured bout,
Carolina, Puerto Rico's undefeated Braulio Santos battles Colombian
veteran John Alberto Molina.
Fontanez vs. Nater, an eight-round
lightweight bout, is promoted by Golden Boy Promotions, Miguel Cotto
Promotions and H2 Entertainment and sponsored by Cerveza Tecate. On
fight night, doors open at 6:00 p.m., the first bell rings at 6:30 p.m.
and the TeleFutura broadcast begins at 12:00 a.m. ET/11:00 p.m. PT.
Tickets, priced at $10, $15 and $25 are available for purchase at all Ticketcenter locations or by phone at (787) 792-5000.
Heading the list of top prospects from the island of Puerto Rico, Jeffrey Fontanez
(8-0,
7 KO's) isn't much for slow starts in the ring. The winner of six
fights by first round knockout, including an exciting finish of Pedro
Hernandez in his last fight in June of this year, the 20-year-old always
comes ready to fight from the time the first bell rings, earning him a
growing fan base with each win.
21-year old John Nater (11-3, 8
KO's) has shown not only impressive power as a professional, but also
the ability to come back from adversity, as he bounced back from losses
to unbeatens Brandon Bennett and Juan Carlos Abreu earlier this year
with September wins over Franklin Frias and Ambiorix Ciriaco that came
just four days apart. On October 13, the Bayamon native will look to
hand fellow islander Fontanez the first defeat of his career.
A
vicious puncher that can take opponents out with shots to the body or
head, 22-year-old Braulio Santos (7-0, 6 KO's) enjoys going home early
and he's willing to put the work in to make that desire a reality. A
professional since 2011, he's looking to make a statement against Molina
on October 13.
Traveling to Puerto Rico on October 13 with one
intention - to put a "1" in Santos' loss column, 35-year-old John
Alberto Molina (32-20-3, 20 KO's) is a hard-nosed competitor who has won
four of his last six fights, showing a late burst of energy that has
him in top form heading into this pivotal matchup. With half of his
knockout wins coming two rounds or less, this one has the potential to
produce some serious fireworks and steal the show .
