Arce could fight ten-rounder in February

By Gabriel F. Cordero

Multi-division world champion Jorge “Travieso” Arce may only fight a ten-round bout on February 18th in Durango, Mexico, because he has been unable to find a world-rated challenger to to make the first defense of his WBO bantamweight title. The WBO has already rejected Lorenzo Parra, Giovannu Andrade and William Prado. Sources say Arce will take a ten round fight and then take aim the winner of next Saturday’s fight between Nonito Donaire and Wilfredo Vazquez Jr for his former WBO super bantamweight world title. Arce will be in attendance at the fight.
