On July 5 (Japan time +4 hours), a WBA World Super Lightweight Title Eliminator will take place at the DIVS Arena in Yekaterinburg, Russia, as part of an RCC Boxing Promotions event. The bout features WBA No. 2-ranked contender Khariton Agrba (Russia), who is undefeated with 15 wins (9 KOs), against WBA No. 12-ranked Rubén Néstor Nery Muñoz (Argentina), who holds a record of 17 wins (13 KOs) and 2 losses.
The WBA has already ordered a fight between WBA Regular World Super Lightweight Champion Gary Antuanne Russell (USA), with a record of 18 wins (17 KOs) and 1 loss, and No. 1-ranked Andy Hiraoka (Ohashi Gym, Japan), who is undefeated at 24 wins (19 KOs). The winner of Agrba vs. Nery Muñoz will earn the right to challenge the winner of Russell vs. Hiraoka.
The main event on the same day will be a WBA Super Middleweight Gold Title bout between WBA/IBF No. 14-ranked Pavel Silyagin (Russia), who is undefeated at 15 wins (7 KOs) and 1 draw, and IBF No. 9/WBA No. 10-ranked Pablo Ezequiel Corzo (Argentina), who is also undefeated with 23 wins (20 KOs).
Also on the card:
– A WBA World Bridgerweight Title Eliminator between WBA No. 2 Evgeny Romanov (Russia), with a record of 19 wins (12 KOs) and 1 loss, and WBA No. 3 Georgy Yunovidov (Russia), with 10 wins (6 KOs) and 1 loss.
– A WBA World Super Welterweight Title Eliminator featuring WBA No. 3 Magomed Kurbanov (Russia), with 26 wins (14 KOs) and 1 loss, against WBA No. 10 Pavel Sosulin (Russia), who is undefeated with 11 wins (6 KOs).
– WBA International Middleweight Champion and WBA World No. 12 Vadim Tukov (Russia), who is undefeated with 15 wins (6 KOs), will defend his title against challenger Kudratillo Abdukakhorov (Uzbekistan), who holds a record of 20 wins (12 KOs) and 4 losses.
– WBO World Super Bantamweight No. 4 and WBA No. 9 Mukhammad Shekhov (Uzbekistan), who is undefeated with 16 wins (4 KOs) and 1 draw, will face WBA and IBF World No. 11 Rodrigo Fabian Ruiz (Argentina), who is also undefeated with 22 wins (16 KOs).
It might be a bit early, but it’s exciting to think that this could be a title eliminator to determine the challenger for a future defense by Andy Hiraoka (Japan), after his victory over Russell (USA) to become the new champion.
