World Boxing Council bantamweight champion Nordine Oubaali of France (17-0, 12KOs) makes the third defense of the title he won, by defeating North American Rau’Shee Warren in January 2019.

Oubaali, a two-time Olympian who represented France in 2008 Beijing and London 2012, has not fought, since defending his crown by defeating Takuma Inoue on November 9, 2019, at the Saitama Arena in Japan.

In that same place, Filipino Nonito Donaire (40-6, 26KOs), a former champion in four divisions, lost in a fabulous and dramatic fight against Naoya Inoue (Takuma’s older brother).
