WBC champ to make first defense Nov. 26 in Seoul

By Joe Koizumi
Korean promoter Kusung Lee of Poong San Promotion has announced that he will stage a WBC featherweight title bout between newly crowned Rudy Lopez of Mexico and ex-WBC ruler Injin Chi in Seoul, Korea, on November 26. Lee and Jose Alberto Gomez, the manager of Lopez, reached an agreement due to the previously executed option contract that Lopez would make his initial defense against Chi in Korea. The 22-year-old Mexican Lopez impressively captured the WBC throne by scoring an upset TKO win over 35-year-old defending champ Takashi Koshimoto (who had dethroned Chi this January) in ***uoka, Japan, on July 30.

Should be an intresting fight,maybe lopez winning was a fluke or we'll see how much Chi has left.

Chi lost his belt to that bull**** WBC cut rule

Memories of his galant but losing bid against no less than El Terrible, his controversial draw and subsequent stoppage win over Michael Brodie and that slam-**** affair with Tommy Browne make me pick Chi.

Besides, I also wanna see JMM-Chi for a sort of "unification", now that Marquez has the "Interim" WBO title, pending the matter of Scott Harrison's fate.

Rudy Lopez and JMM are both under Berestain's management, and I don't think Nacho can be put in the mood for having one champion instead of two-- be that remaining champ a holder of two belts.

I'm also thinking that Chi lost that WBC title to the Japanese under controversial circumstances as pointed out by El Terrible in an adjoining post.
