Comments Thread For: Takashi Miura-Edgar Puerta Set For November 8, Tokyo

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Defending super featherweight titlist Takashi Miura will extend his run of title fights versus Mexican opposition. Plans have been confirmed for a November 8 showdown versus mandatory challenger Edgar Puerta, according to the challenger’s promoter Promociones del Pueblo.

The bout was ordered by the World Boxing Council (WBC), who recognizes Miura as its 130 lb. titlist. Promociones del Pueblo worked feverishly with Teiken Promotions, Miura’s promoter over the course of the past week to secure a deal and avoid a purse bid. The title fight is slated to take place on November 8 in Tokyo, Japan.

WTF is Puerta? I've literally never heard of him. And he's the mandatory? Joke! I see Suliaman is just as crooked as his father was, naming a nobody Mexican as a #1 contender.

****** mandatory. One of the worst mandatories in boxing, and that is saying a lot with, like, 1,590 "world champions." Easy payday for Miura rather than a real defense or a unification fight

Wasn't his last fight against his mando thompson

[dinero fan]

I don't see Puerta winning this fight at all. he has no business fighting miura.
