WBC interim-super featherweight champion Humberto Soto is looking for some revenge in December. Talks are taking place for a rematch between Soto and Francisco Lorenzo. As many remember, Soto beat Lorenzo to an inch of his life back in June. Lorenzo claimed that he was hit while down and was no longer able to continue [replay showed that Soto never landed a punch while he was down]. Soto was disqualified by the ref and Lorenzo was stretched out as the winner. The DQ decision was so bad that the WBC refused to award him their interim-title.

Last weekend in Mexico, Soto busted up Gamaliel Diaz to capture the interim-strap at 130. Now he prepares for revenge against Lorenzo and even plans to move up to 135-pounds to chase Manny Pacquiao. Soto almost fought Pacquiao in November before the Filipino fight signed to fight Oscar De La Hoya on December 6.

"There are talks for me to fight in December against Francisco Lorenzo, this fight interests me because I want to confirm to everyone that I'm better than him," Soto said to ESTO. "I won't be at 130-pounds for more than a year. I will move up to 135-pounds and hope that I can land a fight with Manny Pacquiao."
