BoxingScene.com has been advised that WBC super bantamweight champion Abner Mares (25-0-1, 13KOs) is vacating his title and moving up in weight to the featherweight division. Mares' decision comes on the eve of the WBC's order to face mandatory challenger Victor "Viking" Terrazas (36-2-1, 21KOs). A purse bid was scheduled for this coming Friday.

Why not enter the Dragon's lair?

I think he's too small for 126lbs, I could be wrong.

golden boy better hop on that fight quick or snatch dibs belt

While it seems to stupid to move up to 126 without fighting a 122 pounder first, there really aren't any names left to fight at 122. 126 is relatively loaded in comparison.

mares will regret this decision

[Jocknerd94]

Tune up at Featherweight first probably. Then maybe the winner of Ponce vs Velez. Maybe if Golden Boy is willing to work with 50 Mares could even fight Dib.

Well, 126 will be tough for him will see what happens.

terrazas is a good fight for mares .. i suspect leo will be the one taking mare's mandatory yet again ...

This move is too soon. Wouldn't mind him seeing fight Jhonny Gonzalez as his first fight there though. That'd be a good match up
