Oscar Larios vs. Jhonny Gonzalez in the works

[XaduBoxer]

"Former champ Jhonny Gonzalez (39-6, 33KOs) is in line for a possible title shot against WBC featherweight champion Oscar Larios (62-6, 39KOs) on the December 6 undercard to Oscar De La Hoya vs. Manny Pacquiao at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

They must win their upcoming bouts for the title fight to happen. Gonzalez will return on October 25 in Arizona against Angel Priolo (30-7, 20KOs) of Colombia. Larios defends his title against unbeaten Takahiro Aoh (16-0, 8KOs) on October 16 in Tokyo, Japan.

Reginaldo Kuchle, Gonzalez's advisor and legal counsel, told ESTO that Golden Boy Promotions informed him of the possible title bout if Gonzalez comes through in his next fight."


Is Larios already cleared to fight in the US? Good fight tho...

Jhonny is so busy this year... He already fought 4 times and a fifth one coming in October... The Larios fight will be the sixth this year...

Yeah I didn't think Larios had been cleared yet but it is a good match-up.

I think Larios has his hands full with Aoh though!

[XaduBoxer]

Larios is also very busy this year having fought 3 times already. The Aoh fight in October will be his fourth and the Jhonny fight will be his fifth...

Larios shouldn't be fighting period.

Larios shouldn't be fighting period.

Ditto that!! I thought Linares had pretty much run anything he might have left right out of him. I honestly didn't even know he was still fighting
