#1 Xander Zayas I #2 Jorge Garcia Perez reached the fight for the fight for the free WBO Junior Medium Libra title. The location and date of the fight will be announced soon. The previous Master WBO, Sebastian Fund, decided to give up the 154-pound WBO belt after the sanctioning authority ordered him to start negotiations with the 22-year-old native Puerto Rican Zayas (21-0, 13 KO).

Un-trinity

It is not that the fund was afraid, as if the striking delicate of the Zayas fighter. He decided to fight better in the rematch with Tim Tisz on July 19 on the Manny Pacquiao vs. Mario Barrios. Zayas wanted the fund to have a premature situation with him after his last victory over Chordale Booker, but he did not choose it because he had no fight with him.

Xander looked stupid and desperate, coming to the wardrobe funds, trying to meet. If the fight happened, the fund would be a great favorite because Zayas has no picture. His only way to victories is to hit, move and gain in this order.

Zayas is not well known beyond the Up-to-date York Arena i His style is very uninteresting. It is the opposite of fighters from Puerto Rico Felix Trinidad and Miguel Cotto. It resembles Puerto Rican Shakur Stevenson, which is not good. He also has little Devin Haney. You may notice Haney’s style in Xander, which suggests that he could apply it and Shakur as his role models.

Perez (33-4, 26 KO) leaves the 12-round division of decisions Charles Conwell On April 19 at Oceanside, California. Nobody expected Perez, 6’0 ″, overcome the previously undefeated Conwell, but used a body attack and combination to defeat him.

Handy opportunity?

Zayas’ flaws

– no power
– frail chin
– Never tested: Zayas adapted the highest rank with only mediocre opposition
– not ready for elite competition
– blunt style
