This Thursday night two World Boxing Association (WBA) Fedelatin titles will be disputed. The first will be the bantamweight title between Liborio Solis and Leosdan Nunez, in Panama City, while Yurik Mamedov and Cesar Soriano will fight for the super lightweight title, in Sonora.

Venezuelan Solis weighed 118 pounds, the exact weight of the division, while Cuban Nunez was 117 on Wednesday. The event will take place at the Palacio Dorado and pits the experienced South American (39 years old) against the 26-year-old West Indian in an interesting generational battle.

Meanwhile, at the Gregorio Gonzalez Gymnasium in Hermosillo, Frenchman Yurik Mamedov stopped the scales at 139.7 pounds and Mexican Soriano at 139.2 pounds, thus they are ready to fight for the regional 140 pounds crown.

Both bouts will take place on Thursday night and we will see great talents in the ring who are looking to climb the ladder in boxing.
