The WBO (World Boxing Organization) officially sanctioned the fight for the vacant world lightweight title between the Ukrainian Denis Berinchik and Mexican Emanuel Navarrete, “super champion” of the world in the second featherweight division.
The organization gave the parties 15 days to start negotiations and come to an agreement. Otherwise, promoter bidding will be called.
It is worth noting that Berinchyk ranks second in the WBO lightweight rankings. In first place is another Ukrainian, Vasily Lomachenko. However, he will be boxing for the IBF title, so Berinchyk received a title shot.
Let us remind you that earlier it became known that Denis Berinchik is preparing for his next fight in Spain.
