Flyweight champion Donnie Nietes will mover up to super flyweight, according to Dan Rafael of espn.com.
“Today, I have made my decision to move up to 115 and vacate my IBF flyweight world title,” Nietes said. “This is the challenge I have been waiting for. To go up in weight is never easy, but this is my dream, to become a four-division world champion and to fight all the big names. This is a new challenge for me, and I am very happy that ALA Promotions has supported me to pursue my dream of a fourth division world title.”
“Donnie Nietes will fight for the title soon.” ALA Promotions CEO Michael Aldeguer said. “We are looking forward to making the biggest fights for Donnie in the next couple of years. He is an epitome of what a great and humble athlete should be. He deserves all the success he has now.”
