Thats right folks. Rod Salka is back in the spotlight against Francisco Vargas. P4P rankings may need to be revisited after April 12th.

Former WBC super featherweight world champion Francisco "Bandido" Vargas will return to the ring on April 12, when he faces veteran Rod Salka at the Fantasy Springs Casino in California.
Vargas (24-1-2, 17 KOs) is looking to rebuild his career after suffering his first career loss last January, when his title was snatched by way of a stoppage loss at the hands of Miguel Berchelt.
Salka (24-4, 4 KOs) shot to the spotlight in 2014, when he practically moved up by two weight classes to fight then unified junior welterweight champion Danny Garcia in what many felt was a severe mismatch.
Garcia brutally knocked him out cold in two quick rounds.
Since then, Salaka has won five fights in a row, but he's not been very active and his weight has bounced around from super featherweight to a few pounds above junior welterweight.
