The World Boxing Association (WBA) Championships Committee has scheduled the purse bid for the mandatory bout between super lightweight super champion Josh Taylor and his mandatory challenger Alberto Puello.

The bidding will take place next Friday, April 22 online via the Zoom platform and will begin at 10:00 a.m. Eastern time in the United States. 

The negotiation period between the Scottish and the Dominican expired without reaching an agreement and that is why the bidding was ordered under the terms indicated in the WBA rules.

This Monday, the communication was sent to the parties with all the conditions of the bidding, which will have a minimum amount of US $ 200,000.00 and whose split will be 55% for the champion Taylor and 45% for the challenger.
