Sroty by La Prensa

Bantamweight champion of the World Boxing Association Anselmo Chemito Moreno has accepted a challenge issued by Venezuelan contender Nehomar Cermeño for the title.

"We have never refused a fight," Moreno said Tuesday. "I will fight Cermeño anywhere."

Representatives of Moreno said that details about the fight, such as where and when it will take place and the amount of prize money that it will generate, have yet to be worked out.

Moreno won his last title defense with a split decision victory over Mahyar Monshipour of France in July. He won his title by defeating Ukranian Wladimir Sidorenko in 2008. His record is 24 wins, a loss and a tie.
