The on-again, off-again rematch between Rey Loreto and Nkosinathi Joyi will finally happen Sunday, March 22 in East London, South Africa.
For the second time in as many fights, Loreto (19-13, 11KOs) pulled off a stunning upset in the junior flyweight division when they first met. Less than six months after shocking former strawweight titlist ****sawan Porpramook, Loreto forced the boxing world to stand up and take notice with a jaw-dropping 3rd round knockout of Joyi last February.
Loreto was a lightly regarded journeyman from Philippines prior to his current streak, having won three straight.
Joyi (24-3, 17KOs) has not fought since the knockout loss. The former top-rated strawweight and long-reigning titlist has suffered all three career defeats in the span of his past five contests. [Click Here To Read More]
