| Zhong-Martinez Approved By The WBC, 10/27 in China
|
|
By Miguel Rivera The World Boxing Council has approved a fight between Xiong Zhao Zhong (19-4-1, 11KOs) against Javier Martinez (13-3-2, 6KOs) for the vacant WBC minimumweight title on October 27th in Kunming, China. WBC president Jose Sulaiman is happy to be a part of what the sanctioning body is calling a history making match, with the first world championship fight to take place in China. Zhong won a unanimous decision over Mexico's Osvaldo Reason on June 16th to capture the WBC silver title. Martinez scored a fifth round knockout over countryman Ulysses Lara to win the WBC's silver International crown on April 7 in Cuautla, Morelos, Mexico. |

The WBC just wants to give Zhong their little paper title belt before they let Cuello loose on his ass. |

[QUOTE=hougigo]Well WBC want to be the first to have a pro championship in china. Why care when you can be the first?
Wasn't Denever Cuello the mando? If I were to guess though, they said he'll fight the winner[/QUOTE]
