By Scott Gilfoid: #3 WBA Scott Quigg (31-1, 2, 23 KOs) is hoping to get a title shot against 36-year-old WBA World super bantamweight champion Nehomar Cermeno (24-5-1, 14 KOs) in the near future.
Cermeno has Quigg’s old World Boxing Association 122lb title that he lost recently to Carlo Frampton last February in a 12 round decision loss. Cermeno picked up the vacant WBA title last June after stopping Jun Qiu Ziao in the 12th round.
Before Quigg can get a shot against Cermeno, he’ll need to wait until he gets his first defense of his title out of the way against Anurak Thisa (17-0, 5) on September 30. Cermeno is reportedly interested in facing Quigg.
