Ipinag-utos ng World Boxing Organization na tanggalan ng World bantamweight title ang Filipinong si John Riel “Quadro Alas” Casimero kasunod ng rekomendasyon ng Championship Committee hinggil sa pagpalyang madepensahan ang korona laban sa mandatory challenger na si Paul “Baby-Faced Assassin” Butler ng Inglatera nang dalawang beses.


Ayon sa inilabas na kautusan ng WBO Headquarters nitong Miyerkules, inirekomenda ng WBO World Championship Committee na pormal nang tanggalan ng World title belt si Casimero upang ibigay sa bagong nagmamay-ari nito na dating interim champion na si Butler bilang bagong kampeon ng WBO 118-pound.


“Now, to resolve the issue in question, we must enforce a straight-forward approach. Simply put, determined whether Casimero failed to comply with the WBO Regulations of World Championship Contests pursuant to the provisions contained in this Committee’s “Resolution.” This Committee is of the position that the conditions outlined in the “Resolution” are crystal clear. The relevant provision triggered upon the British Boxing Board of Control’s ruling prohibiting Casimero to participate in his second scheduled WBO championship bout. Wherefore, Casimero was unavailable and consequently, failed to comply as ordered by this Committee,” nakasaad sa resolusyong inilabas ng WBO na may pirma ni WBO Championship Committee Chairman Luis Batista Salas.


“The Committee unanimously recommended to the WBO Executive Committee to strip John Riel Casimero’s WBO World Bantamweight Championship Title for failure to comply with the conditions set forth in its “Resolution.”


Ito na ang ikalawang beses na nabigong madepensahan ni Casimero ang titulo na unang dapat nangyari noong Disyembre 2021 sa Coca Cola Arena sa Dubai, UAE, ngunit hindi sumipot ang 32-anyos mula Ormoc, Leyte sa weigh-in dahil sa pagkakaroon umano ng ‘gastritis’ na nagresulta sa pagkakaospital umano nito. Nabigyan ng tsansa ang kampo ni Casimero na magpaliwanag ng WBO at kinatigan ito, sa usapang idedepensa niyang muli ang titulo laban kay Butler sa mismong lugar nito sa Liverpool, England.

Pormal nang itataya ni newly-crowned WBC featherweight champion Mark “Magnifico” Magsayo ang kanyang titulo sa unang pagkakataon kontra kay undefeated Mexican boxer at dating WBC super-bantamweight titlist Rey Vargas sa Hulyo 9 sa Alamodome, San Antonio, Texas.

Tatangkain ng 26-anyos mula Tagbilaran Bohol na maipagtanggol ang titulo matapos talunin ang dating kampeon na si Gary Russel, Jr. nu'ng Enero 22 sa Borgata, Atlantic City, New Jersey. Nagsimula nang sumabak sa pagsasanay si Magsayo sa ilalim ng gabay ni legendary Hall of Famer trainer Coach Freddie Roach sa Wild Card Gym sa Los Angeles, California sapul nang magbalik mula sa bakasyon sa Pilipinas noong isang buwan, kung saan tumagal ng dalawang taong pamamalagi ito sa U.S.


The championship showdown between WBC Featherweight World Champion Mark “Magnifico” Magsayo and unbeaten former world champion Rey Vargas which headlines action live on SHOWTIME Saturday, July 9 from the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas in a Premier Boxing Champions event. Tickets for the live event, which is promoted by TGB Promotions, go on sale Wednesday, April 27 at 12 p.m. CT and are available through Ticketmaster.com,” ayon sa inilabas na release ng Showtime Boxing.


Hindi lingid sa kaisipan ng kampo ni Magsayo (24-0, 16KOs) na sunod nilang kakaharapin ang Mexican warrior dahil naudlot lamang ang paghaharap nina Russel (31-2, 18KOs) at Vargas (35-0, 22KOs) matapos magtamo ng broken leg ang 31-anyos na Mexican boxer na nagbigay-daan para lumaban ang Filipinong kampeon.

Nagpalitan ng maaanghang at maiinit na salita ang dalawang pound-for-pound fighters sa kani-kanilang sports sina undisputed super-middleweight at light-heavyweight boxing champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez at UFC welterweight titlist Kamaru “The Nigerian Nightmare” Usman matapos simulang humirit ng manager ni Usman na si Ali Abdelaziz sa social media.


“Canelo is an absolute chicken. He is fighting guys with 5000 followers on Instagram, these guys will never do nothing for his legacy. Now I understand why he doesn’t wanna lose to someone like (Usman), this is chicken style, no risk — no reward,” wika ni Abdelaziz sa Twitter account.


“Who the f*** is this?” tugon ni Canelo sa tweet kasama ang laughing emojis.


Mas lalong pang tumindi ang mga binitawang akusasyon ni Abdelaziz patungkol sa mga pag-iwas ni Alvarez na labanang muli si Genndy “GGG” Golovkin.


“You know who I am, you know what’s the difference between you and @USMAN84kg? You’ve been ducking GGG for 2 years now, but Kamaru have fought everybody UFC threw at him. I’m being very nice to you, because it’s Ramadan.”


Samantala, inanunsiyo ng Prime video at ng ONE Championship ang isang multi-year agreement para mai-broadcast nang live ang MMA event kada taon.
