Joan Guzman plans to vacate his WBO 122-pound title. Guzman will move up to 126 and face Terdsak Jandaeng, in a WBO-sanctioned eliminator for the right to face Scott Harrison.
I always thought Guzman was to big to stay at 122, this would be a cracking fight if it happens.
This is good news. I always hoped that Guzman would move up and fight a Marquez or Harrison kind of fighter at 126. I would have loved to see him take on Rafael Marquez at 122 but guess thats not happening. Guzman can crack, and has pretty good skills to go along with his power. I think his only problem is motivation come fight time.
Well, Larios chose to fight Wayne McCullough again. He beat him convincingly in the first one so I don't know why a rematch was needed. he should've fought Guzman.
I think it's funny how Boxingtalk put that editors note in there about the first time a boxer had vacated his title to fight a Terdsak (the guys name is Terdsak Jandaeng)
I saw Guzman against Joe Morales and he looked good considering he was around the 130 mark and had been fighting at 122 so he's obviously been killin himself to make weight, hopefully he gets a fight with Harrison as it'll be interesting to see who take the first backward step cos those two will go at it :boxing:
