“Panterita” arrives at his pad in  Las Vegas

World Boxing Council silver bantamweight champion, Mexican Luis “Pantera” Nery, is already in Las Vegas for his  Saturday night at the MGM Grand against Carlos Payano.

“Pantera” (29-0-0, 23 KO) will defend his WBC Silver crown, against Juan Carlos Payano (21-2-0, 9 KO) who`s also a former world champion, and it`ll be televised in Mexico by Aztec 7.

After an intense camp in Puerto Rico, Nery said he was in the very best shape, to defeat the dangerous Dominican.

If he succeeds in  defending his Silver crown, the next step for Nery is challenging for the WBC Green and Gold  belt firmly  held by Frenchman Nordine Oubaali, during  this year.
