Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz is expected to face Nestor Bravo on September 19, with potential venues in Arizona or San Diego being considered to host the event.
- Mexico’s interim WBC super lightweight champion Cruz (28-3-2, 18 KOs) comes off a majority draw with Lamont Roach Jr. last December.
- Puerto Rico’s Bravo (24-1, 17 KOs) won his previous bout in January by second-round knockout against Pedro Campa.
The fight was reported by Mike Coppinger on Inside The Ring. Premier Boxing Champions (PBC), which has promoted Cruz’s previous bouts, has yet to make an official announcement.
