INTERNATIONALLY-respected boxing website BoxRec.com has confirmed that Guyanese `Vicious’ Vivian Harris is scheduled to enter the ring on November 29 for his second fight this year. 

Harris is down to clash with Mexican Ramon Alvares in Mexico for the International Boxing Federation (IBF) junior middleweight crown.
The fight would be the second in the junior middleweight division for the former World Boxing Association junior welterweight champion.
On the other hand, the 28-year-old Alvarez, hails from Jalisco, Mexico and has never fought outside his home country. He has been defeated four times in 26 fights, the last being a 12-round decision to Mario Alberto Lonzano on October 10, 2012.
Harris was crowned champion in October 2002 following a second-round Technical KO of champion Diosbelys Hurtado in Huston, Texas. He would have three successful defences but was then dethroned by little known Colombian Carlos Maussa via seventh round knockout.
The talented Guyanese secured three victories before unsuccessfully challenging Junior Witter of England for the WBC junior welterweight title. Thereafter Harris’ career plunged into a tailspin with him losing six of his next nine fights over a four-year period.
The 36-year-old returned to winners’ row in 2013 and has had a three-fight victory streak since. Last month, Harris was scheduled to fight Raul Carrillo, another Mexican, for the USNBC welterweight title. That bout fell through after Carrillo pulled out less than a week before the event.
At present Harris is in Las Vegas preparing for what could be considered a career-defining encounter.
