The boxing world will have a great evening on Saturday, July 22, when the Firelake Arena, in Shawnee, United States, welcomes Giovani Santillan, who will face another veteran of the discipline, the Ecuadorian Erick Bone, in the welterweight category.

It is a night where the American Santillan will expose his great record as a professional, since in 30 battles he has never lost, different from the case of Bone, who has been competing since 2011 and is still looking to make that leap as one of the best in the bouts.

In his last bout, the U.S. boxer defeated Julio Luna Avila, on August 20, 2022, by unanimous decision, after 10 rounds that took place in San Diego. In other words, the fight against Bone is the end of 11 months without stepping into the ring.
