Chemito Moreno vs Lorenzo Parra in November?

By Jhonny Gonzalez

There are reports in Venezuela that WBA bantamweight champion Anselmo "Chemito" Moreno (30-1, 10KOs) has agreed to defend his title against Lorenzo Parra (31-2, 18KOs). Parra has been fighting at super bantamweight since 2008, yet he weighs in only two pounds above the bantam limit. Moreno is due to return in November but there is still talk on whether he takes a fight in Japan or in Europe. There are offers to fight in both locations.

Another option Moreno has viewed is a fight with Alexander "El Explosivo" Munoz. That option won't happen because Munoz just fought last Saturday in Panama. He is interested in facing Moreno, but says that he won't be ready to fight again until early 2011. He would like to fight Moreno in February.
