WBO flyweight champion Brian (The Hawaiian Punch) Viloria will wait a little longer before exacting payback on Mexicannemesis Omar Niño Romero as their 12-round title fight has been reset from April 1 to May 12, 2012 at 9 p.m. ET at Ynares Sports Arena in Manila, Philippines.
Solar Sports’ Paolo Diaz said preparations for the Ynares show are proceeding smoothly. “We’re not sure if this issue of paying the fine popped up when Niño fought (Rodel) Mayol for the WBC title and won,” he said.
Island Assault 4: Viloria vs. Romero live this Sunday 9am on GMA Network. Replay Schedule will be posted here once it becomes available online.
The plan is for the Viloria-Romero winner to meet the survivor of tomorrow’s WBA flyweight title bout between defending champion Hernan (Tyson) Marquez of Mexico and Filipino challenger Mayol in Sonora. The unification showdown will likely be held in July, maybe in the undercard of a major promotion headlined by Juan Manuel Marquez, said Chanliong. source:philstar.com
