It was “Mexico vs. El Mundo” last night (Fri., May 18, 2018) for Combate Americas inside Auditorio Municipal Tijuana, and let’s just say it was a rough night for “The World.”
That’s because the hometown fighters prevailed over their global rivals — mostly — turning away the likes of Brazil and Spain, though United States proved to be insurmountable thanks to victories from Andres Quintana and Daniel Rodriguez.
Sorry, mi amigos.
Two of the best finishes of the night belonged to Rodrigo “Kazula” Vargas and Edgar “Pitbull” Chairez, who ripped through their opponents on the Univision Deportes preliminary card with relative ease.
