Twin Plaza Hotel, Jakarta, Indonesia – WBO #2, WBA #4 Daud Yordan has set his mind for Luevano’s title after a workmanship win over gallant Filipino WBO Featherweight Youth champion Ricky Sismundo yesterday.
Filipino boxer Sismundo, on June 27th, beat then undefeated prospect Yohannas Yordan, brother of Daud, in just three rounds via technical knockout for the WBO Asia Pacific Featherweight Youth crown.
Yordan said, “now I will leave it up to Golden Boy Promotions to make the fight happen with Steven Leuvano, I will surely knock him out and there will be no acting for him when we fight." If he was a true champion he should have stood up after he was hit by Concepcion to prove to fight fans what he is made of. I know it was wrong for Barnabe Concepcion to hit him after the bell, but this is boxing, you have to protect yourself at all times.”
"My advisor and Golden Boy Promotions international matchmaker Sampson Lewkowicz informed that he will be attending the WBO convention set-forth on August 24th at Budapest Hungary to get the President's blessing of making me as a mandatory to Leuvano’s crown. My track record have been proven, I have fought and defended numerous regional title defenses and have fought the best including former world champion Robert "No Mas" Guerrero who quit on me on March 07, 2009,” said Yordan.
“We believe, it is just a matter of time and I will be a world champion. My promoter Golden Boy Promotions and the ability of Richard Shaefer’s making things happen will get me a world title soon,” Yordan added.
Meanwhile, Lewkowicz and Golden Boy Promotions Vice President Eric Gomez said that they are planning for Yordan for a WBO eliminator sometime November with a suggested bout with a top ten contender to justify my mandatory for Luevano.
