Berchelt and Vargas May 11

Miguel “El Alacrán” Berchelt and Francisco ” Bandido” Vargas have already clashed in a war inside the ring, and now  two years since that impressive battle, the Mexican warriors are ready to fight  one more time.

Berchelt, who snatched from Vargas the super featherweight World Boxing Council title with a knockout  victory in the 11th round in January 2017, will defend his belt for the the 5^th time on Saturday, May 11 at the Tucson Arena, located inside the Convention Center of Tucson, Arizona.

Berchelt vs. Vargas 2 will be televised by ESPN and ESPN Deportes starting at 10 p.m. ET. Backup fights will be broadcast live starting at 6:30 p.m. ET for ESPN +.

“Francisco Vargas is a great Mexican warrior, just like me,” Berchelt said. “I am training to the maximum to demonstrate once again that not only am I better than him, but I am the best of the 130 pounds of the world.

“I have no doubt that 2019 will be my big year back,” said Vargas. “This rematch against Miguel Berchelt on May 11 is something I’ve been waiting for some time, as I said before our first fight, the Mexicans never back down, and I’ll prove it once again in the ring.”
