Cesar Seda Hungry To Get His Hands on Omar Narvaez

By Rey Colon

Cesar "Junito" Seda will be glued to the television on Saturday night watching the Argentine WBO champion at 115-pounds, Omar Narvaez, defend his title against Victor Zabaleta at the Polideportivo Municipal de Monte Hermoso in Buenos Aires. Seda is scheduled to facethe winner in the coming months.

"We are waiting for what happens on Saturday. Junito is number one and we want to Narvaez because he's the best and has a history. He is willing to come to Puerto Rico but calls for millions. Let's see what Gary Shaw decides and whether he can sell the fight to Showtime or another outlet. We are available to fight," said his coach and father, Cesar Seda Sr.

Narvaez, 35-years-old, is 32-0 with 19 knockouts, and has made 16 title defenses of the flyweight crown since he won it in 2002 and broke the 15 defense mark of the legendary middleweight Carlos Monzon.

Seda, 25-years-old, has a record of 20-0 and 15 knockouts, and stands at 5'6, which is three inches more than the Argentine boxer.

The hard-hitting boxer from Puerto Rico is considered to be the best candidate to capture the crown.
