I think the WBC ambitions changed, Jose Sulaiman was the main drive behind it...Now some ppl associated with the WBC are trying to bring all the belts they can to Mexico so they can negotiate big $ vs Arum in return for China (Shiming possibly in 108 or even 105 if he doesn't have KO power in 108 Japan has their stars + Roman Gonzalez. If Ioka doesn't man up, they will let Roman Gonzalez move up to 115 leaving the deep division to Ioka (112 is deep mainly because of the 4lbs unintentional over stretched gap between 108-112 giving it a bottle neck effect...prospects how drain hard settle at 112 + seasoned stars jump into 112)
Good info guys. I dont watch the little guys too much since its hard to catch them on TV. Comast will list the fights on their guide and then theyll have some other bull**** on.
:huh What flyweight bouts are listed on the programming guide on Comcast? What channel? What part of the country?
Ah, that makes sense, yeah, for those involving the likes of Segura & Sosa... I wouldn't imagine any of the Japanese cards would be covered over here, though.
http://www.asianboxing.info/5/post/2014/03/ioka-to-immediately-vacate-if-he-wins.html Sounds like it's gonna happen ah well can't say Super Flyweight is an easy division tbh.
Amnat has a target on his back, first Arum was targeting him, making it seem Shiming will just take his belt :yep. Now Inoue already getting ready for 115...Amnat must be :twisted: 115 has the legend -----> Omar Narvaez, but I doubt wants to mess with that :yep That said I expect Gonzalez to go for Omar Narvaez at 115
Narvaez Srisaket Tepparith + Tete and Sanchez Jr... and I'll just throw Oleydong's name out there since he's technically Ring Magazine Top 10 at 115 pounds and he is the man that made Ioka a star (if you haven't seen Ioka vs. Oleydong... then at least check out the wicked body shot KO ending). Edit: Yeah... I guess I just felt like listing the top 115 pounders. No cupcakes up there but the division is pretty darn shallow of legit top end talent.
Don't blame Ioka; blame the WBA. It's not that hypocritical to what they do in other divisions and with other star fighters.
