This weeks edition of ESPN2's Friday Night fights features two intriguing match-ups and one of special importance for Northwest fight fans. The iron chinned, strong willed slugger form Oregon, Rafael Ortiz, faces his toughest test to date when he takes on slick southpaw boxer, Tyrone Harris in the co-main event of a packed card. The main event features popular featherweight Jason Litzau against Emmanuel Lucero. Litzau is looking for his second straight win after suffering his first loss, a disastrous eighth round TKO at the hands of Jose Hernandez. Lucero is also on the comeback trail looking to erase the memory of his most recent knockout loss at the hands of Rocky Juarez.

Jason Liza (21-1 18KO's) Emmanuel Lucero (24-4-1 14KO's) both weighed in without any problem, both at 126 lbs.
