(FEB 22) There have been
many stories reported that the WBC super featherweight champion
Olivia Gerula did not want to go to Peru to fight the WBA super
featherweight champion, Kina Malpartida. That story has been cleared
up by both Ms. Gerula and her Manager. Ms. Gerula stated that she
had no problem fighting in the beautiful city of Lima and will be
happy to unify the titles there.
Ms. Malpartida is scheduled to fight on May 1st at the Coliseo
Miguel Grau, Callao, Peru. The problem is the scheduled opponent for
Ms. Malpartida. Her name is Yolis Marrugo Franco and she is from
Columbia. She last fought in 2008, almost 2 years ago and her
fight prior to that was in 2005. That means that she has
fought one time in 5 years. Is this an opponent for a world
champion? I cannot believe that the WBA has approved of this fight
for the world title. [According to
Boxrec, she is fighting Franco]
OK Kina, it is time for you to step up to the plate. The fight
against Franco does nothing for you and actually is a disgrace.
Olivia will be in Lima this coming week to do an exhibition bout.
Why don't you come to the fight and be a true champion and accept
her challenge to unify the titles on May 1st instead of the so
called opponent that your team has chosen for you.
