(JAN 10) The World Boxing Council
authorized today the fight between Edgar Sosa, who is the WBC
international flyweight champion and the silver champion, Wilbert “Huracan”Uicab.
"This fight will be very important for the Mexican fans and worldwide,
because it will show who is the best flyweight fighter in Mexico," said
Sosa. On Saturday, March 31, 2012, is the tentative
date that the promoters of both fighters, Ricardo Maldonado, and Pepe
Gomez, propose to finalize the fight.
"In the fight would be interesting that
the titles of each are at stake," said Maldonado. "Both, me and
Maldonado have asked to be an elimination bout for the world title”.
Said Gomez.
The possibility that the winner between
Sosa and Uicab fought against the champion, Pongsaklek Wonjongkam, could
be fulfilled at the end of the year as the king of the category will
face a mandatory shot against Japan's Toshiyuki Igarashi and then play
an optional defense.
"If I want to get the world title, I must first beat Sosa. I have
confidence that 2012 is my year. I want to make a great fight, beat a
good champion and look for the WBC belt," said Uicab.
