China's only proper ranked boxer WBC contender Xiong Zhao Zhong will face off against a Korean opponent.
Result will follow.
Xiong defeated the "Korean" with a 4th round KO.
"Korean" down in the 3rd.
With victory Xiong added to his record which now stands at 18 Wins (11ko's) 3 Losses and 1 Draw. With tickets priced at 680RMB(low end) and 1000+(high end) and the poor opposition on display, It was not really a good show overall and a bad representation of the sport.
If as they said, Xiong will fight for the WBC silver belt in his next bout. Then the WBC World belt(if he wins Silver). He will have to be ready to take a huge leap in class. This bout was just to get another W without any risk of defeat.
Hopefully if Xiong has anything left (which I hope he does) he will take on the WBC Silver champ Armando Torres W17 (KO 12) L 9 (KO 3).
If he wins and the WBC organized the fight. A title fight against Sonny Boy Jaro would be a huge task that would most definitely be his last title shot should he lose.
Sony Boy Jaro with a record of W34 L10 D5. Most of his losses coming in championship fights in Mexico and elsewhere.
Sony won the belt by knocking out Pongsaklek Wonjongkam W83(45 KO) L4 D2.
Torres is now in another weight divisionas is Pongsaklek so it won't happen..It is the WBC Asia who decides on who he can (3 choices) fight for the Silver and thereafter for the ultimate title..not the promoter..Sorry you did not feel it was a good show. We all worked hard at making it one.
I was presuming he would fight again at flyweight. So he will stay at light flyweight now?

I can't find Lee Gui Hun's(李智鸿) boxing record on Boxrec.com (Maybe because its not there)
I could have the spelling wrong but I have checked light flyweight,flyweight and super flyweight.
@ringvoice or anyone for that matter, can send me the record if it exists or tell me if I have the spelling wrong.

I guess Xiong won't be going for any of those belts now. But I have seen stranger things happen.
