Larios - Aoh
Larios - Aoh
You have Óscar Larios vs. Takahiro Aoh scheduled for October 16th, for the WBC Featherweight title. What about Jorge Linares? Has he given up his belt, or has he been stripped (in both cases of which Larios would be the "regular" WBC champion now), or will he be stripped or lay down his belt? I've read nothing about this so far... Anybody knows more?
Re: Larios - Aoh
I think Linares has been injured for a while..

Re: Larios - Aoh
And Larios is Mexican. The case is solved. Hurrah!
Re: Larios - Aoh
Linares just vacated. Problems with weight and injuries.
Larios is now the full WBC champ at 126.

Right:
Akihiko Honda’s Teiken Promotions on Tuesday announced a doubleheader featuring world title bouts in Tokyo, Japan, on October 16. WBC bantam champ Hozumi Hasegawa (24-2, 8 KOs), making his seventh defense, will risk his belt against WBC#2 Mexican Alejandro Valdez (21-2-1, 15 KOs), NABF 118-pound ruler, over twelve. At the press conference, WBC feather kingpin Jorge Linares, handled by Teiken, officially announced that he would renounce his belt to outgrow the 126-pound category and invade in the 130-pound class from now on. Then, unbeaten Japanese feather prospect Takahiro Aoh (16-0-1, 8 KOs) will have an ambitious shot at the WBC full championship against Oscar Larios (62-6-1, 39 KOs), a Mexican warrior unbeaten here in Japan, over twelve. Teiken will stage a world title tripleheader in Yokohama, Japan, on September 15. Teiken that handles no less than eight world, OPBF and national champs seems so busy that it will have all of them active in the second half of this year.
