An exciting war is now official for tomorrow night, when former world champions Moises Fuentes and Francisco Rodriguez Jr. will collide at the Gustavo Díaz Ordaz Municipal Gym in Tecate, Baja California, Mexico. The bout will be a final WBO junior flyweight eliminator to get a world title shot at current champion Donnie Nietes.

Fuentes was able to make the weight with ease at 107.14. Rodriguez, after two failed attempts, was unable to make the limit. He was only able to get down to 109.2-pounds.

Because of Rodriguez's inability to make weight, only Fuentes is able to get a shot at Nietes if he wins.

Rodriguez (17-3-1, 13 KOs) lost a hard-fought twelve round decision to Nietes in July. Rodriguez unified the WBO/IBF titles at 105-pounds in a fight of the year battle against Katzunari Takayama of Japan last August before moving up in weight.

Rodriguez also lost to the current pound-for-pound king Roman 'Chocolatito" Gonzalez in 2013.

Fuentes (22-2-1, 12 knockouts), who held the WBO title at 105, has beaten the likes of Puerto Rican great Ivan Calderon. He fought Nietes twice, going to a close draw in the first fight in 2013 and then losing by knockout in the 2014 rematch. Fuentes has won three in row, including a knockout of former champion Oswaldo Novoa in July.
