DENVER “The Excitement” Cuello is now in Dubai together with Jaro gym trainers George Sol, Romualdo Mahinay, stablemate Lionel Legada and promoter Aljoe Jaro for the former’s upcoming world title challenge against WBC minimumweight world champion Xiong Zhao Zhong of China.
Promoter Aljoe Jaro informed CDN that Cuello had an excellent final training session Tuesday at the Jaro boxing gym. He had 12 rounds of sparring against three boxers: former WBC flyweight champion Sonny Boy Jaro for 4 rounds, Jomar Fajardo for 4 rounds and finished with Lionel Legada. He will have his final last sparring for 6 rounds against Legada in Dubai.
Legada will also be fighting on the undercard.
Jaro said Denver will have no problem making the 105 lb.weight limit since it is very hot in Dubai and he’ll have no trouble sweating off the extra pounds.
Cuello (33W-4L-6D, 21 KOs) vs. Zhong (20W-4L-1D, 11 KOs) will happen on June 28 at the World Trade Centre, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. /Correspondent Rene Bonsubre Jr.
