Hopes revived for Morelia that won its first and only goal on a great individual play by Aldo Leao.

The youth of Monterrey yesterday came off the bench to give the victory to Rayados 3-1, on a Morelia that had serious errors in a game that had a good second half in the start of the eleventh day of the opening tournament of 2013 of the Mexican League.

The victory goals were of Guillermo Madrigal, at the minute 49 and 56, and Alejandro Garcia, at the 77th. Aldo Leao Ramirez scored for Monarcas, at 66.
With this result, the Sultana del Norte, which added its second win in a row, reached 13 units, while those at home were left with 20 and can lose the first place in the table if América or León win their matches .

When they needed to confirm their status as a leader of the competition the most, the "Purépechas" were far from an optimal level in every way, especially in their lower lineup, which had mistakes that were reflected in the outcome and that definitively marked the course of this confrontation.

The obligation of being local and of carrying the weight of the match with the tag with which they started, resulted in that they took the lead, which, however, was far from good soccer, lacking in depth, largely motivated by the absence of the Ecuadorian Jefferson Montero. Nevertheless, Aldo Leao's talent was enough to generate the more dangerous first half, on a pass from fellow Colombian Santiago Trellez, who cut inside the area within Leobardo Lopez to take a shot that Jonathan Orozco, with excellent reflexes reached to prevent the fall of his frame.

Rayados had been practically unchanged in the front, however, Jose Guadalupe Cruz made an amendment, which changed the whole perspective of the game, as they managed to end their zero on the board and went ahead with a two-goal advantage.

Mariana Juarez better known as the BARBIE within boxing, is presented for the first time here in Vallarta for the international fighting title, "Absoluto Super Mosca". In an exclusive interview for Vallarta Today she told us: "I'll do my best to capture that title, I will fight against a Thai, on this occasion with the name Buakew Onesongchalgym. It is a girl who has been in 17 fights, but we can't ever be overconfident because there are girls in Thailand and Japan with 8 or 9 fights here, but with many more in their own country.

"When we asked her, how does she manage to practice this sport and continue being a feminine woman, she answered us: "Boxing is a tough sport, but we do not stop being women, and all that I have to do is train, but at the end I am a woman, in the end I have to look good. I think that all of us women are flirts, we all like to help ourselves a bit with makeup, so that we keep being ourselves and prove that not only because one looks like a hag, it is not really the opposite. " How do you manage to keep your feet on the ground with so much fame? "I think that I owe it to my parents, I was raised in a simple way, full of humility. In the end, my dad always says, we must be humble and simple because, having our feet on the ground is going to keep us from falling down or prevent us from tripping so Badly that we cannot get up. We must also be grateful to the people who support us, with life, with God, for everything that they have given us, because ultimately, we are sometimes up and sometimes down. " Please send a message to the girls who are interested in this sport. "Well the truth is that it is a very nice sport that has given me so much. I love this sport, but it is also a very demanding discipline where if you enter, you have to dedicate yourself to it 100%. I recommend it. Besides helping you to keep in shape, it helps you to defend yourself in any circumstance that presents itself. I send greetings to all my fans, I will be waiting for you this October 12th. You can not miss the fight, it will be a defense against a Thai, so we have to come out with our hand up, and I need your support, thank you.

Riviera Nayarit will seek to break the record of 2012 when this year, starting next October 9, the 2nd International Sport Fishing Tournament of La Cruz de Huanacaxtle takes place, according to information provided by the Sport Fishing Club of Tepic.

The tournament will take place between the 9th and the 13th of October of this year and it is the second one organized by this club in the Marina Riviera Nayarit, where it started on the right foot last year.

"Last year we began a new chapter on fishing tournaments of Banderas Bay. We managed to impose four records: the largest number of participants, the most catches in an event, the biggest Marlin and the biggest Sailfish.

"This year we had our event in San Blas, which had 63 participating boats and was a record for its more than 52 years of life. We have promised that in La Cruz we will have the same party atmosphere and camaraderie, with new weighing equipment, better logistics and many more things that we have achieved with the experience behind us", said Francisco Navarrete Buhaya, Managing Director of Fishing Tournaments of the Riviera Nayarit.

For now, Buhaya Navarrete said that 30 participating teams are already confirmed and he assured that with this number they are confident that they will break the attendance record again and meet the goal of registering 80 boats.

If this number was reached, the participating teams would add up to 415 fishermen - between 4-5 for each team, plus their families and friends, who will visit La Cruz from as far away as the United States, Acapulco, Monterrey, Manzanillo, Barra de Navidad, Puerto Vallarta and San Blas. This will result in a significant economic benefit for all the residents of the state.

"The Treasure of the Mexican Pacific", as the Riviera Nayarit is known, has one of the most attractive offers for the lovers of sport fishing. Sailfish, Goldfish, Tuna and Marlin of three different species, among others, can be found in this coast, diversity which ensures good fishing in any season. I invite you to register and visit our webpage www.clubdepescadeportivatepic.com and thus live the experience of big-time fishing in the Riviera Nayarit", said Navarrete Buhaya.

They are the Champions!

On Sunday August 18th at 6pm the streets of downtown Vallarta and the Malecon were filled with hundreds celebrating the victory of the famous American Football team, Banderas Bay Pirates (Piratas de la Bahia).  People from Colma, Manzanillo, Mazatlan, Tepic, Puerto Vallarta and Banderas Bay.

After a long wait, on Saturday three marlin were measured in their regulatory weight, but the first places of Friday conserved the lead and took the prizes, in the 7th Fishing Tournament of Marlin and Tuna of the Fishing Club of Banderas Bay

The afternoon of the second day of competition three new specimens of Marlin were presented to weigh-in at the amphitheater of Paradise Village, but the leaderboard did not change. This is because Juan Moll, aboard the boat 'Maverick' , presented a weevil of 117.400 kilograms which allowed him to stay in third place, despite that Luis Manuel Ocaranza, in 'El Matador', had registered one a little earlier of 115.600 that had supplanted Moll for a few minutes from the prize.
Also on the second day of competition the boat of the hosts, the Fishing Club of Bahia de Banderas, with Rodolfo Barcenas Escudero to the head, presented a 105.900 kilogram weevil to place in sixth position. In the two days of competition there was no catch of gold fish, tuna or sailfish in the regulatory weight, therefore the awards were deserted.

Then came the awards, but not before raffling many of the prizes among members of the registered fishing groups, which were attended by members of the board, led by Alberto Sánchez Cardenas.

When it was his turn to speak, he said that it was a good tournament, with few competitors but all in good spirits for participating in this tournament which gradually has been consolidated, especially thanks to the sponsors that help us.

On the subject of the lack of tuna, he said that it is probably due to the tuna vessels, which are very close to the coast and devour everything, but there are going to be talks with the Harbor to check the situation, as it is not certain. "Now we are going to prepare for the Fishing Tournament of Puerto Vallarta in November."

Vallarta Opina spoke with Esteban Torres Soto, captain of the team "Ana Maria", with over 20 years of experience, who narrated how it was that they pulled out the specimen that gave them the first place and how they barely got there in time for the weighing.

"It was up to the last minute. We had little time to get to the scale and we had to apply a little more pressure to the spool to be able to make it on time, but thank God we got there 3 minutes before closing time", he says with the satisfaction of a winner in the face.

Similarly he said that the marlin was captured in a place known as "the bank", which is located 46 nautical miles from the Marina of Nuevo Vallarta and was where most of the boats went, "there were a lot of dolphins who would not let us fish, we would complain because they would take the bait, but being stubborn we continued and at last we were lucky and we made it", he says while indulging in a drink from the sponsors.

The now famous "Tibi", also known as Esteban Torres, said that they have been fishing in most of the tournaments, or about 12 a year, but this year, due to external factors, this is just the first one, and they could no longer be in six. He said that they are going to the tournaments of Topolobampo, Mazatlan, Los Cabos, San Blas and in Puerto Vallarta he says that they have already won about 12 tournaments in the Marlin category and that they expect to take the one of this year.

It should be remembered that the team "Ana Maria" pulled a marlin of 262.500 kilograms, with a height of 3.49 meters, a billfish that was good enough to give them that coveted title during the 7th International Fishing Tournament of Tuna and Marlin of Banderas Bay, in Riviera Nayarit.
