Humberto Soto vs Mzonke Fana - IBF Championship

[aillmatic]

Looks like Soto will be back in the title picture at 130. They are negotiating a fight against Fana for the IBF belt on May 17. It will be part of the undercard for the Mijares-Munoz unification fight. Fana is scheduled to fight on April 12, if he wins.... the fight should be set.


good news for Soto.

[Boom_Boom]

good fight for Soto, i would like to see that title in the hands of a legitimate elite fighter in such an already deep division

[Morrissey]

Should be a good rebound fight for Soto.

Afterwards, he should face JMM or Pac. Just love to see him strutting his wares against these two.

He could actually beat JMM, has a good style against JMM.

im not feelin this...

I dont want a situation where titles aren't unified b/c there is no demand for a rematch of these two.

[theunderdog]

i'll be the first one to congratulate humberto soto winning the championship from that farce of a paper chump in mzonke fana.

[dangerousity]

Poor Fana.

[Galileo Galilei]

Soto wins this easily, Fana isn't exactly the strongest belt holder around.

I'd like to see him get it on with some of the divisions other elite fighters.

JMM, Valero, Guzman 2, etc. Hell put him in with the winner of Barios and Juarez.

Nice to see Soto staying active, guys a good fighter.

[pryorgatti]

That is an utter understatement. he is the top 5 worst title holders in boxing today

You know, I've never actually broke down the 5 worst title holders in the sport.

But yeah, I'd expect Fana to be in there.

[hellblazer]

Soto by mid round K.O!

[Nestea]

Soto is my bet, Fana isn't that talented like Soto.

Though I give him props for holding a belt.

[Arriba]

He could actually beat JMM, has a good style against JMM.

Ehhhh I dunno. I like Soto...but not against JMM.

I think JMM would cut him up pretty bad.
