Jonathan Taconing came up
short on his second attempt to become a world champion against WBC
light-flyweight world champion Ganigan Lopez in July but Taconing is back on
the hunt for another title shot.
Former OPBF and WBC International
light-flyweight champion Jonathan Taconing
(22-3-1,18KOs) will make his first
ring appearance after his competitive loss to world champ Ganigan Lopez on July
2. He will try to reclaim the WBC International light-flyweight title by facing
fellow Filipino Salatiel Amit (9-1-2,7KOs) on November 19th.
In his first
world title fight in 2012, Taconing lost a highly controversial Technical
Decision to then Thai champ, Kompayak Porpramook in Thailand. While in the
process of pummeling Porpramook in the corner with a barrage of punches, Korean
referee Jae Bong Kim questionably stopped the fight due to a cut to the
champion which Taconing's camp described as non-critical.
Amit from Omega
boxing gym only setback was against prospect Jade Bornea in July 2015. He is
riding on his 3 fights winning strict and will be a good test for Taconing's
comeback fight.
