McNemar of Parkersburg, West Virginia has a record of 13-1 with ten knockouts, is coming off his lone defeat which was a razor thin unanimous decision to undefeated and world ranked Ryan Coyne (16-0) on June 25, 2011. The decision was close to the point that the verdict was booed in Coyne\u2019s hometown of St. Louis.<\/p>\n<p>This will be the fourth fight in fifteen months for Flores (27-1-1, 17 KO\u2019s) as he has scored stoppages over Nick Iannuzzi (16-2) &amp; in his last bout he stopped Hugo Pineda (39-5-1) on January 28th in Springfield. \u201cI am looking forward to fighting in front of my hometown fans again,\u201d said Flores. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter Samir pulled out, we offered the fight to five or six undefeated guys but McNemar was the one who stepped up to the plate and accepted. I know he is coming to win, so I expect a tough fight but at the end of the day I am ranked very high across the board and it\u2019s very possible and even likely that I will fight for a title in my next fight , so I can\u2019t look past McNemar<\/p>\n<p>More than 2900 fans are expected at the Shrine Mosque and all the high end $120 tickets are gone.
