According to Dan Rafael of espn.com., Super Bantamweight title holder Abner Mares will take on Bantamweight titlist Anselmom Moreno on November 10th at Staples Center in Los Angeles.

“Once the Pacquiao fight definitively moved to Dec. 8, the Nov. 10 date became available, since there are no other fights scheduled on that date,” said Showrtmes Stephen Espinoza. “The Nov. 10 date works better for Showtime’s schedule, and it gives Abner an opportunity to fight in his own backyard. It also gives us more time to market and promote our telecast. We will have a highly competitive main event matchup between two of the top fighters in the lighter weight classes, as well as a very exciting undercard to be announced shortly.

“Best of all, we are able to avoid conflicting with another boxing event, since we have Nov. 10 free and clear.”
