Boxing fans were treated to an entertaining evening of bouts on Saturday at the Don Haskins center that included hometown favorite Antonio Escalante, and 2 main events for Bantamweight championships.
Antonio Escalante told me yesterday, that all he had on Francisco Camacho was 1 Round of tape and it was all that he need to see.
He was absolutely correct as Escalante dominated from the opening bell and earned a TKO over Camacho in the 4th Round...
On a beautiful El Paso day, media and fans alike, converged on The Garden in downtown El Paso for the weigh in's for all the fighters for the Battle On The Border.
