Mike Olivera Brings Support to BRAZIL
Undefeated middleweight prospect Michael Oliveira (14-0, 11 KOs) will have some heavy hitters supporting him Saturday night – Hall of Famer Eder “Golden Bantam” Jofre and former world light heavyweight champion Glen “Road Warrior” Johnson – when he enters the ring against Dominican veteran Jose “Minguito” Soto (24-7-2, 13 KOs) in the 10-round main event for the vacant WBC Latino championship. The bout will take place at the Credicard Hall in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Oliveira was born in Sao Paulo but he moved two weeks after birth with his family to Miami. He will be fighting for the third time in Brazil as part of a six-fight, two-year deal with TV Global. General admission tickets to the event are free.
