Russell Cadayona - Pang-masa

MANILA, Philippines - Si Mexican light flyweight titlist Roman ‘Chocolatito’ Gonzales ang posibleng labanan ni unified world flyweight champion Brian ‘The Hawaiian Punch’ Viloria ngayong 2013.

Sinabi ni Bob Arum ng Top Rank Promotions na na­kausap na niya ang kampo ng 32-anyos na si Viloria at nagparamdam na rin sa grupo ng 25-anyos na si Gonzales.

“I’ve had conversations with Viloria representatives to make that fight, and I’ve also expressed inte­rest to Fernando (Beltran) who has a contract with Cho­colatito’s handlers so we can carry out this fight,” ani Arum.

Kung maitatakda ang laban kay Viloria, ang flyweight champion ng World Boxing Organization at World Boxing Association, aakyat ng weight division si Gonzales.

Ibinabandera ni Viloria ang kanyang (32-3-0 win-loss-draw ring record kasama ang 19 knockouts, habang dala ni Gonzales, ang WBA light flyweight ruler,  ang kanyang 34-0-0, 28 KOs) slate.

Matagumpay na naidepensa ni Viloria ang kanyang WBO title kontra kay Mexican Omar Niño Ro­mero (31-5-2, 13 KOs) via ninth-round TKO win no­ong Mayo 13, 2012.

Inagaw ni Viloria kay Mexican Hernan ‘Tyson’ Marquez (34-3-0, 25 KOs) ang bitbit nitong WBA belt mula sa isang tenth-round TKO win noong Nobyembre 17, 2012 sa LA Sports Arena.
