After another bumper week of boxing action, there are more changes across The Ring<\/a>‘s divisional rankings, and there’s even been an alteration to the pound-for-pound list, too.
On July 30, Kenshiro Teraji lost his WBC and WBA flyweight titles to Ricardo Sandoval<\/a> in an exciting, back-and-forth encounter. That very same night saw Antonio Vargas retain his WBA bantamweight title<\/a> after a 12-round unanimous draw with Daigo Higa, who announced his retirement soon after.
Elsewhere on that undercard in Yokohama, Kyosuke Takami won the WBA junior flyweight title with a 10th-round TKO win over Erick Rosa.<\/a>
Two days later in Caracas, Venezuela, Carlos Canizales became the new WBC junior flyweight titleholder<\/a> with a dominant 5th-round knockout victory against Thailand’s Panya Pradabsri.
There was also non-tile action at the weekend as Oscar Duarte beat Kenneth Sims<\/a> by majority decision across 12 rounds of action in Chicago. On the undercard, Regis Prograis survived numerous onslaughts to outpoint Joseph ‘JoJo’ Diaz across 10.<\/a><\/p>\n
