Issac "Canelito" Avelar (13-0, 8 KOs), and Alejandro Frias (6-2-1, 3 KOs), clash for the WBC FECOMBOX Featherweight title in a 10-round main-event at the Palenque de la Feria in Aguascalientes, Mexico on February 2, 2018.
Issac "Canelito" Avelar, who is managed by Prince Ranch Boxing, is looking to make a statement in his hometown after having his last fight delayed due to a minor hand injury.
"I am ready to show my hometown fans why I will be fighting the best fighters in the world," said Issac Avelar.

Everyone will see the best version of Canelito on February 2nd"
"Canelito is a big star in Aguascalientes, Mexico where he was born and raised," Oscar Vazquez, president of Sugar Promotions stated. "We are excited to put on a show with great local talent. Canelito is a homegrown hero from Aguascalientes, Mexico and it is exciting to promote such a massive event. Everyone in town will be here."
