Brian "The Hawaiian Punch" Viloria will get a crack at the World Boxing Organization flyweight championship on June 4 at the Staples Center.

Viloria (28-3, 16 KOs) will enter his seventh championship bout, against Mexican Julio Cesar Miranda (35-5-1, 28 KOs) on the undercard of Julio Cesar Chavez main event fight with Sebastian Zbik.

Miranda is likely to be Viloria's last crack at a world title if unsuccessful, as he stands at 4 wins and 3 losses in championship fights and is working back from a violent 12th round knock-out defeat against Carlos Tamara in January, 2010.

Tickets for the event are available at www.ticketmaster.com.
