Casamayor Stripped, Sets Up Nate Campbell-Joan Guzman WBO Summer Showdown!
BREAKING NEWS FROM THE WBO
Golden Boy Promotions is about to get a letter from the WBO officially notifying them that Joel Casmayor has been stripped of his interim lightweight title status. Casamayor retains his Ring ****zine title. Ring is the boxing publication owned by GBP.
This notification will set in motion WBO champ Nate Campbell’s mandatory and his new challenger will be two-time WBO champ (at 126 and then 130 pounds) Joan Guzman.
When I saw Campbell at the IBHOF Weekend, he looked ready to fight next week. Both the champ and co-promoter Terry Trekas said their goal is set the Guzman bout down for August so that Campbell can move on to a November bout.
“Who knows what can happen? Trekas said. “We beat Guzman, then we’re ready for Manny Pacquiao who may be looking for a fight. I am sure Pacman would like to go after Nate’s three title belts, especially if he collects the WBC strap from David Diaz June 28.”
Guzman is in the Dominican Republic but is ready to get back to training camp on a moment’s notice. Joan’s mother has been having serious health issues.
