Comments Thread For: Roger Gutierrez, Chris Colbert Reach Terms For Title Fight, Avoid Purse Bid Hearing

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The respective teams for Roger Gutierrez and Chris Colbert were able to put extra time to good use. BoxingScene.com has learned that deal was reached between the pair of junior lightweights, thus avoiding a purse bid hearing that was scheduled for Monday to have determined promotional rights to the ordered WBA "Super" title fight. Two separate deadlines passed without the two sides coming to an agreement, though managing to come to terms at the eleventh hour to avoid the fight being made available to all WBA-registered promoters.

Good to see pbc and golden boy working together, something that should happen more often. Imagine how it would be for American boxing if pbc, golden boy, and top rank all worked together

Gutierrez should already be holding the Super title but I like seeing Colbert getting this fight.

Colbert will be hard to beat. He has a awkward slick style that's hard to get a read on.

That would build boxing back beyond a niche sport IMO

Exactly. I hope one day all 3 outfits are on the same network or at least pool resources and take steps best suited for their fighters and hence the American sports fan

This is a good fight, one Colbert is going to have to stay focused for the entire 12 rounds. Looking forward to it!

Gutierrez is holding the WBA full title. Like WBC, IBF and WBO. It's not super or regular at the moment.
