JULIO DIAZ IS BACK IN THE RING ON HALLOWEEN NIGHT

SAN DIEGO, Calif.– Former lightweight champion Julio Diaz (35-4, 26 KOs) will spend Halloween night inside a ring as he takes on the grizzled veteran Fernando Trejo (30-14-4, 18 KOs) on Friday, Oct. 31, from the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino televised on TeleFutura (5 p.m. PT).

The ten-round lightweight bout is promoted by Top Rank in association with Sycuan Ringside Promotions of San Diego, Calif.

One year removed from his lightweight unification loss to Juan Diaz, Julio plans on making a statement on All Hallows’ Eve.

“I think I belong with the best in the lightweight division,” said Diaz, who lives and trains out of Palm Springs, Calif. “My fight against Juan [Diaz] wasn’t the real Julio. You’ll see the real Julio on Halloween night.”

Trejo of Jarrell, Texas by way of Mexico City, Mexico, doesn’t have the shiniest of records, but he does have a solid chin as only one of his fourteen losses has come by knockout.

“Trejo is an experienced fighter,” Diaz said. “Young, undefeated fighters don’t want a piece of me because they know what will happen. Trejo, on the other hand, isn’t afraid. He will come out swinging.”

Diaz, who looked flawless in his last outing against David Torres in June at the Playboy Mansion, said he could have finished Torres in three rounds as opposed to the fifth round stoppage.

“I knew Torres wasn’t in my league from the first round,” Diaz said. “I used a few rounds to try some new things because I knew the knockout was just around the corner.”

The 28-year-old Diaz, who stands five-feet nine inches, showed up to training camp fit and hungry for another victory.

“I’ve never seen Julio this anxious to get into world title contention,” said Joel Diaz, Julio’s older brother and trainer. “Even when he was a young lion looking for his first world title shot he wasn’t this fired up.

“That’s because the fire burns more intense once you become a world champion and get dethroned. You want it more because you’ve already had a taste and you miss it. Julio won’t rest until he becomes world champion again.”

McGirt returns Nov. 11 as proven prospect

VERO BEACH, Florida – How a pro boxer responds to adversity usually separates contenders from pretenders. Highly-regarded world middleweight prospect James McGirt, Jr. (19-1, 9 KOs), coming off of his first career loss, passed his first major test June 25 on national television, winning a unanimous 10-round decision against former IBO and WBU middleweight champion Raymond “Hallelujah” Joval (37-5, 16 KOs).

McGirt, who returns to the ring November 11 on “Bad Boys” (Glen Johnson and Edision Miranda headline the card in separate bouts) against an opponent to be determined in Hollywood (FL), successfully bounced back from his first pro loss in April to Carlos DeLeon, Jr., serving as a valuable lesson for James who had floored DeLeon at the end of the sixth round, only to get careless going for a knockout in the seventh and consequently getting stopped himself.

McGirt has started to establish his own identity, somewhat breaking from the shadows of his father and head trainer, 2-time world champion James “Buddy” McGirt – James doesn’t use the nickname “Buddy” – with his win against Joval that catapulted him into the No. 8 spot in The Ring magazine’s ratings, as well as No. 14 in the latest World Boxing Council rankings.

“I felt better about myself after the Joval fight,” James said, “but it didn’t erase the loss (to DeLeon). But I did beat The Ring’s No. 8 rated middleweight (Joval). I beat a well experienced fighter, but I still have to whoop Carlos DeLeon so I can sleep good again at night.”

McGirt recently shifted training camp from Vero Beach to Las Vegas, where his father is preparing Paulie “The Magic Man” Malignaggi for his November 22nd showdown against Ricky Hatton. “I’ve had a real good training camp and it’s going to get even better in Las Vegas,” James remarked. “I don’t know who I’m fighting but it doesn’t matter. Whoever it is, he’s going to have to worry about me. Paulie’s getting ready for his big fight with Hatton. My dad is his trainer, so I’m going where he is, and I respect that. I need to get away anyway. I’ve been home too long. I’ll be working harder out there and will be able to focus even more. It’s going to help get me in the right frame of mind with five weeks to go so I can go kick some butt. I can promise you this: I will be ready to fight on November 11th.”
