CALIFORNIA- After seeing a specialist, x-rays showed that Bruno "The Aloha Kid" Escalante (13-1-1, 6 KOs) was fighting with two broken bones in his left hand during this IBA Super-Flyweight title defense against Victor Ruiz (12-3, 9 KOs). Escalante showed tremendous grit as he continued fighting when the injury occurred in the 2nd round. The injury will likely keep Escalante out of the ring for 3 months.
"The doctor said Bruno can make a quick recovery if he lets his hand heal properly," said Manager Herb Stone. "He could return after a few months of rehab. Bruno proved to me he has tremendous heart carrying on with a broken hand. I'm hoping he can fight by the end of the summer. I have big plans for Bruno when he returns to the ring."
