The vacant World Boxing
Federation (WBF) Super
Bantamweight title is on the
line, when South Korea´s
Sung-Young Yang takes on Chinese
co-challenger Fan Cai on
Saturday October 19.
They will headline a show
promoted by Howon Kang at the
Gyungju Gymnasium in
Gyeongju-si, South Korea.
Unbeaten in his last eight
outings, 23-year-old Yang, 7-2-5
(3), came very close to winning
his first professional title
this past January, when he drew
with local man Jian Wang for a
WBO regional title in Suzhou,
China.
Southpaw Fan Cai, 5-3-1 (2),
also twenty-three, is on a good
run of his own and captured a
WBC regional strap last time
out, stopping Indonesian
Pradatiya Alfarez in five
rounds.
In a very interesting clash of
up-and-comers, Cai will enter
the bout full of confidence and
with success at championship
level, while Yang is determined
to take the final step across
the line to win a title.
