    Comments Thread For: Derry Mathews Will Now Face Tony Luis in WBA Clash

    Derry Mathews was scheduled to face Ismael Barroso this weekend in in Liverpool, England at the Echo Arena for the WBA interim-lightweight title. But things hit a snag on Monday, according to Greg Cohen who promotes Barroso.

    "The people at Frank Warren came to me - he's the promoter of the event - they didn't tell me till yesterday that (Barroso) needed a visa," BoxingScene was told by the veteran promoter, who exhausted all avenues to secure one for his boxer."I went to Top Rank, I asked who their specialist was, they gave him to me. To make a long story shot, I couldn't get it done."

      Awesome opportunity for Luis. I hope he wins it. Became a fan after watching him against Redkach.

          So a 37-9 guy ranked 50th by boxrec at lightweight (Mathews) is fighting a 19-2 ranked 68th (Luis) for an alphabet "title" belt.

          What a great effing sport.
