HECTOR MERCADO VS. JASON TODD FOR FCE LIGHTWEIGHT TITLE


Brookfield’s Hector Mercado will battle Sandwich, Illinois native Jason Todd for the Fight Card Entertainment Lightweight Title in one of the feature bouts at FCE #43/FINAL CONFLICT this Saturday night, December 17th at Mojoes Music Venue (22 W. Cass. Street, Joliet, IL 60432).

Sporting an undefeated record of 4-0, fan favorite Mercado challenges Todd who sports a hard fought even record of 3-3.

The 24-year-old Mercado was originally set to challenge Omar Diaz for the title, but Todd has stepped in on short notice with an eye on the FCE belt.

A native of Guadalajara, Mexico, Mercado is an all-around athlete drawing huge crowds to his fights at Fight Card Entertainment events.

Said Brian Angelo of Fight Card Entertainment, “Hector was a terrific high school athlete at Lyons Township prior to his four year stint in the US Army. He’s got an outstanding all-around game, particularly on the ground.”

“Although Omar Diaz would have presented a tough challenge for Hector, we’re very confident that Jason Todd, who has faced numerous skilled fighters, will present a more than worthy test for Hector.”
