TOTOWA, NJ– Top jr. middleweight contender Joel Julio’s impressive April 30 victory over Ishe Smith earned him a two-spot jump in the WBC rankings, it was announced today by Main Events CEO Kathy Duva and All Star Boxing President Tuto Zabala. The Colombian bomber is now installed as the WBC’s #4 ranked contender and is looking for a showdown against any of the major sanctioning body champions.
“Ishe is a difficult opponent because he is so good defensively,” said Julio. “That is why I wanted to fight him. Now I want to get back in the ring and fight for a title as soon as possible.”
Julio (32-1, 29 KO’s) is also ranked #4 by the IBF, #6 by the WBA, and #8 by the WBO. The 23-year-old Monteria, Colombia native has stopped 21 opponents within the first three rounds. He has won his last five bouts, three by knockout. In 2005 Julio was named “Prospect of the Year” by several media outlets, including ESPN.com.
