Daud Yordan is Ready For War With Celestino Caballero

By Mark Vester

Undefeated Indonesian featherweight Daud Yordan is ready to take Celestino Caballeo to war this coming Saturday in Florida. Caballero-Yordan will be the HBO co-feature to Andre Berto-Carlos Quintana. The WBA interim-title will be on the line and the winner is likely to face WBA champion Yuriorkis Gamboa in July on HBO.

Yordan has been dreaming of this kind of opportunity and wants to make the best of it by going toe to toe with Caballero. He knows Caballero has power but he doesn't plan to fight at the distance. He plans to push the action by taking the fight to Caballero. 

“I’ve been dreaming of such a fight, and it has finally come true. I’ll never let this chance slip from my grasp,” Daud told the Jakarta Globe. “Caballero is a tough fighter. He may be the toughest opponent I’ve faced in my career, but I’m not afraid and I won’t take a step back. I am confident.”
