It was announced in Japan that a deal was reached for an exciting clash at super flyweight. Former WBA champion Nobuo Nashiro (14-2-1, 9KOs) will take on Tomas Rojas (34-12, 23KOs) for the WBC title on February 5 in Osaka. Rojas won the title, vacated by Vic Darchinyan, with a twelve round decision over Kohei Kono in September. Nashiro lost his title to Hugo Cazares in May, but bounced back in October with a three round knockout of Indonesian boxer Iwan Key.
