Undefeated junior middleweights Yuri Foreman, and, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (pictured) are among those who will be featured on the Manny Pacquiao-Miguel Cotto undercard on Nov. 14 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

A 29-year-old rabbinical student, Foreman was born in Belarus, raised in Israel and now lives in Brooklyn.

Chavez is the 23-year-old son of the legendary three-division world champion by the same.

A native of Culiacan, Mex., Chavez (40-0-1, 30 knockouts) will meet Troy Rowland (25-2, seven) of Grand Rapids, Mich., in a 10-round middleweight matchup.

After watching last weekend's one-sided loss by Juan Manuel Marquez, fellow Mexican Cris Arreola feels a cultural responsibility entering Saturday night's fight against heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko.

"It did give me an extra incentive to carry the Mexican torch and grab the bull by the horns," said Arreola. "Whether my fellow Mexican fighters are on the top or not, I am in the business to win the title."

If Alfredo Angulo looks like a serious fellow, it's because he is.

Ask him about boxing and he'll talk about things that might bore your accountant and put your trainer to sleep. There's maintaining weight, the importance of discipline, and, in training, living a life that Mother Teresa might find just a tad puritanical.

In the ring, he's no different. He has the guts to fight a bull while wearing red boxing trunks and a rebar-enforced punch that might leave that snorting sap seeing stars.
