BoxingScene.com has confirmed that unbeaten Indonesian banger Daud Yordan will not be the opponent for Daniel Ponce De Leon on the Shane Mosley-Andre Berto undercard on January 30 in Las Vegas. Golden Boy Promotions was trying to put the fight together for the undercard. The WBA was going to sanction the fight for the vacant interim-WBA featherweight title.

Yordan's team was informed by Golden Boy that monetary issues would prevent the fight from happening on that card. From what I was told, there wasn't enough room in the budget to fit that fight in. There is no confirmation on whether Ponce De Leon will move forward with the January date against another opponent, or if Golden Boy plans to reschedule the fight with Yordan to a future card. For the moment, Ponce De Leon is still scheduled for action on January 30.
