The WBA set Friday, April 29 as the date for the bidding to grant the promotional rights of the super welterweight eliminator fight between Israil Madrimov and Michel Soro. Madrimov and Soro will fight in a rematch and the WBA gave them the regular deadline for negotiation. Upon expiration of such period, the fight was open to bidding pursuant to the WBA regulations.
The bidding will held online through the Zoom platform and will be presided by Carlos Chávez, director of the WBA Championships Committee. The minimum amount to obtain the rights to the fight will be US$ 110,000.00 and the split will be 50% for each of the fighters.
Hopefully whoever wins this will make sure the fight is somewhere else besides Uzbekistan. Madrimov may win again, that’s fine even though I’m a fan of Soro’s, but at least you can get a clean ending.
I’m a fan of Soro too and think he’s going to win this one.. If it doesn’t happen anywhere near Uzbekistan lol !
I hope you”re right Régis. He should have a better chance in the rematch as he was off two years before the first fight.
