There was plenty of respect on display between junior featherweight titlist Leo Santa Cruz and former two-time junior bantamweight titleholder and Mexican countryman Cristian Mijares on Tuesday at the news conference in Los Angeles to formally announce the March 15 card they will be fighting on at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. The Showtime PPV card is headlined by the junior middleweight fight between former titlist Canelo Alvarez and Mexican countryman Alfredo Angulo, but the always-entertaining Santa Cruz (26-0-1, 15 KOs) and Mijares (49-7-2, 24 KOs), the mandatory challenger, meet in the interesting co-feature.
