According to reports coming out of both America and Mexico, Jr. Welterweight/Welterweight Josesito Lopez will be the man finally filling the void for Saul Alvarez' first major show in America on September 15th.

Prior to the Lopez selection, Paul Williams was to be the opponent but a motorcycle accident has left Williams paralyzed from the waist down, making that clearly impossible. James Kirkland was then selected but he backed out, citing problems with an injury he sustained in his bout with Carlos Molina as well as financial demands not being met. Finally, it was "Vicious" Victor Ortiz, but he was stopped in a bout with the aforementioned Lopez and thus, the Lopez meeting seems the likely choice.

While nothing is official, it appears as though an official announcement could be made as early as tomorrow. On the under card of the SHOWTIME telecast, Jhonny Gonzalez will take on fellow Featherweight Daniel Ponce De Leon, while Heavyweight contenders Seth Mitchell and Johnathon Banks will battle it out.
