Mendez opened his training camp, more than 3 weeks ago and he has shown to be very focused for upcoming war. Promoter Henry Rivalta believes boxing fans will see the talent in Argenis in the HBO “Boxing After Dark” fight. “This fight will open new doors, we have very talented fighters that possess the ability to be at the next level and HBO is it, they are the best," says Rivalta.

Hovhannisyan is seen as a dangerous fighter. “We have seen Hovhannisyan fight and believe that technically he would have to improve to defeat Mendez.
