Although Eddie Hearn goals of pitting IBF gentle flyweight champion Sivenathi Nontshinga towards former flyweight champion Sunny Edwards, “The Particular One” has a compulsory protection to cope with first. Jake Donovan studies that the IBF have given Nontshinga till April 4th to barter a rematch with prime contender Christian Araneta.
Nontshinga’s (13-1, 10 KO) and Araneta’s (24-2, 19 KO) first assembly in 2021 noticed Nontshinga survive a Twelfth-round knockdown to narrowly scrape out a unanimous determination. Araneta has since scored 4 knockouts in 5 wins, essentially the most notable of them a 110-second wipeout of fellow Filipino Arvin Magramo this previous January.
All indicators level to a different banger right here. Nontshinga’s mixture of ability, destructiveness, and vulnerability make him must-watch TV, as seen in final month’s comeback knockout of former conqueror Adrien Curiel in hostile territory.
With this growth, my guess is that fellow titlists Kenshiro Teraji and Jonathan “Bomba” Gonzalez will as soon as once more try to put a unification struggle collectively after their current victories. If organizers can get the timing proper, the winner of that and the winner of this needs to be able to battle for undisputed glory as soon as the mud settles.
