Former WBC 108-lb champion Brian Viloria resumes his march to the top as he sees action on May 17 against TBA at the Plaza Monumental in Aguascalientes in Mexico.

The 10-round bout will be in the undercard of the Jorge Arce-Devid Lookmahanak showdown.

Since his loss to Edgar Sosa last year, Viloria returned with two victories in a row against Jose Garcia Bernal and Cesar Lopez early this year.

Also seeing action on May 17 is Fil-Am Glenn Donaire possibly in a non-title fight after IBF light flyweight king Ulises Solis backed out from fighting Donaire due to a severe case of pneumonia.

Reports from Mexico say Solis is now slated to defend on July 12 also against Donaire.
