LEMOORE -- Don Juan Futrell, who won a hard-fought bout with Valley standout Hector Alatorre at the Tachi Palace last December, will try for his second big win at the Casino tonight when he faces Lowell Brownfield in a scheduled 10-round junior welterweight bout.

Futrell (21-3-1, 10 knockouts) will gun for his seventh consecutive victory. The St. Louis fighter also owns a win over heralded Hector Camacho Jr.

But Futrell's opponent figures to be tough one. Brownfield (10-4, 3 KOs) lost a controversial decision to Alatorre and won one over Juan Herrera in two of the more exciting bouts in Palace history.

Brownfield, who is from Omaha, Neb., but now lives in San Fernando, has lost two of his last three bouts. But both were decisions to fighters with solid records -- Eddie Brooks (7-1) and Ramon Montano (15-5).

Tonight's show, scheduled for 6 p.m., will include 10 boxing matches and two mixed-martial arts bouts.

In a scheduled 10-round co-feature, Las Vegas cruiserweight Dewey Coopeer (16-1-2, 10 KOs) meets Missouri's Terrance Smith (5-6-1, 3 KOs).

One of the preliminaries will feature former USA amateur great Aaron Alafa (1-0) of Visalia against Greg McDowell (0-0) of Cambria.

The show is scheduled to begin at approximately 6 p.m.
