Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum told fight news.com today that things are looking good for a unification showdown between unbeaten WBO super bantamweight champion Juan Manuel “Juanma” Lopez (26-0, 24 KOs) and WBA/IBF super bantamweight champion Celestino “Pelenchin” Caballero (33-2, 23 KOs). HBO has already committed to a January 23 date, said Arum, however Junama first has to win his October 10th title defense against Rogers Mtagwa. Nothing has been signed as of yet, but the bout would take place in Puerto Rico. http://www.fight news.com/?p=22816
No more excuses. Props to Arum for finally making it happen, but this is what's supposed to happen in boxing, that a lot of times doesn't. If Caballero wouldn't have embarrassed Lopez, it'd been the same **** that happened with Abraham and Pavlik.
