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.?br />
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.
