After scoring a dominant stoppage win in his United States debut, Pedro Taduran is hoping to make a unification bout with the biggest star at 105lbs.

Pedro Taduran took a big step toward raising his profile in search of a unification bout, retaining his IBF strawweight title with a seventh-round stoppage over Gustavo Perez Alvarez on Friday at Pechanga Resort in Temecula, California.

Pedro Taduran hit the strawweight mark at Thursday’s weigh-in to lock in Friday’s challenge from Gustavo Perez Alvarez at Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, California.

Ginjiro Shigeoka has been discharged from hospital after suffering a brain bleed in his defeat to Pedro Taduran, writes Tom Ivers.

Pedro Taduran will make the second defense of his strawweight title against Gustavo Perez on April 3 at the Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, California.

Pedro Taduran used his experience and skill to outclass the previously undefeated Christian Balunan on Sunday to retain his IBF strawweight title via unanimous decision

Both IBF strawweight titleholder Pedro Taduran and his opponent Christian Balunan came in under the 105lbs limit for their all-Filipino world title fight on Sunday in the Philippines.

To commemorate the occasion, Pacquiao, 46, is promoting a stacked 14-fight card Wednesday at the same Araneta Coliseum where the “Thrilla in Manila” was staged.

Pedro Taduran has big dreams for himself on the world stage. Before the IBF strawweight titleholder can conquer the rest of the world, though, he first has to handle business at home in the Philippines.

BoxingScene has confirmed that the IBF will recognize the Pedro Taduran-Christian Balunan 105lbs title fight as a mandatory defense.
