When Oscar Valdez fought in Tucson for the first time in 2015, he was a fast-rising prospect. He promised he would return someday to fight in his childhood hometown as a world titleholder. That is just what he did. Valdez retained his featherweight belt for the third time in an action-packed unanimous decision against Genesis Servania on Friday night before a raucous crowd of 4,103 in the main event of the Top Rank ESPN card at the Tucson Arena. Valdez lived in Tucson from ages 4 to 9, before moving with his father to his native Nogales, Mexico, just over the border. He still has plenty of family, including his mother, and friends who live in Tucson. And he and Servania gave them quite a show. Valdez won by scores of 117-109, 116-110, 115-111 in a slugfest in which he and Servania exchanged knockdowns. ESPN.com scored the fight 116-110 for Valdez. read more http://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/...es-genesis-servania-retain-featherweight-belt
