(AUG 8) Unbeaten in 30
professional fights, super bantamweight standout Andres "Jaguar"
Gutierrez will look to keep his "0" intact on Saturday, August
9, when he defends his WBC Silver Championship at home against
Mexico City's Mario "Huracan" Macias at the Auditorio Jose Maria
Arteaga in Queretaro, Mexico.

This 12-round main event will be
broadcast on Televisa and FOX Deportes, along with a 10-round
co-main event featuring the IBF Female Minimumweight Title Fight
between Mexico City's Victoria Argueta and Guadalajara's Alondra
Garcia.
Fresh from the biggest win of his career, an eighth-round
technical knockout of highly-touted Braulio Santos in March,
29-year-old Mario "Huracan" Macias (26-12, 13 KOs) hopes to
deliver another upset victory on Saturday against Gutierrez. A
nine-year pro who challenged for the WBA World Bantamweight
Title in 2011, Macias is now hoping to move up the 122-pound
ladder in the coming months.
Three months removed from her title-winning effort against Nancy
Franco in May, IBF Minimumweight Champion Victoria Argueta
(12-1, 4 KOs) will defend her belt for the first time on
Saturday, and this talented 23-year-old has every intention on
staying on top for a long time.
Winner of nine of her 10 pro bouts, 19-year-old Alondra "Magnifica"
Garcia (9-1, 1 KO) has been competing professionally since 2012,
and now she is on the verge of becoming a world champion. In her
most recent fight, Garcia outpointed Montserrat Alarcon in May,
and now she's ready for Argueta.
Gutierrez vs. Macias, a 12-round bout for the WBC Silver Super
Bantamweight Title, is presented by Golden Boy Promotions and
Canelo Promotions and sponsored by Corona. Doors open at 5 p.m.
CT and the first fight begins at 6 p.m. CT. The FOX Deportes
broadcast begins at 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT and the Televisa
broadcast airs at 10:30 p.m. CT.
