FRANCISCO VARGAS AND JHONNY GONZALEZ VINTAGE RIVALS

During the annual convention of the World Boxing Council, held last week in Baku, Azerbaijan, an interesting super featherweight elimination match ordered between former champions Francisco “Bandido” Vargas and Jhonny Gonzalez.

The winner would get the opportunity to face the WBC champion, Miguel  Berchelt, who is scheduled to make a voluntary defense against the powerful Orlando “Siri” Salido.

Francisco Vargas seeks revenge against  Berchelt, who cut his reign as WBC champion, handing him his first defeat as a professional. On the other hand, Jhonny Gonzalez will try to conquer a new division and thus make history within Mexican boxing.
