The World Boxing Council today is officially appointing Vitaly Tajbert of Germany as the undisputed WBC super featherweight world champion.

Tajbert won the WBC interim super featherweight championship by defeating Humberto Gutierrez of Mexico last November 11.

Humberto Soto was ordered to meet interim champion Tajbert, but requested the WBC’s permission to remain super featherweight champion until he climbed into the ring to fight for the WBC lightweight world championship, which he won last Saturday night at Cowboys Stadium in Dallas, Texas.

Humberto Soto is now the WBC lightweight champion and in strict adherence to the WBC Rules and Regulations, Tajbert becomes the undisputed super featherweight champion of the world. We wish him the best of luck in his career
