Regal Regis trains for way down yonder WBC title defense\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

World Boxing Council super lightweight champion, Regis Prograis, will defend his title against Puerto Rican Danielito Zorrilla, on Saturday June 17 at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, Louisiana.<\/p>\n

Prograis (28-1, 24 KOs) became the 140-pound world champion by knocking out Jose Zepeda in 11 rounds at Dignity Health in California last November.<\/p>\n

The 34-year-old New Orleans native has defeated Juan Heraldez, Ivan Redkach and Tyrone McKenna in his most recent bouts.<\/p>\n

Zorrilla (17-1, 13 KOs), promoted by former champion Miguel Cotto, has a sterling opportunity to win the WBC Green and Gold title on June 17, replacing the injured Liam Paro. The 29-year-old has beaten the likes of Pablo C\u00e9sar Cano and Arnold Barbosa Jr.<\/p>\n

Regis Porgrais opened the door to his training camp to show that he is in excellent condition to defend his crown and mantle.<\/p>\n

Regis, who trains under Bobby Benton, is highly motivated to make the first defense of his 140-pound crown.\u00a0The fight is organized by Matchroom Boxing and will be televised on DAZN.<\/p>\n
