Motivated to prove the naysayers wrong, Oscar Valdez exited the new WBC junior featherweight champion by scoring an emphatic knock out over favored Miguel Berchelt in round 10.
Avni Yildirim has been the WBC mandatory contender for two years. He stepped aside last fall and allowed Alvarez to fight Callum Smith. Yildirim knew he’d get the winner. Alvarez acquiesced. No way he wanted to lose his title after just winning it.
