Abdullah Mason shines Bright – Boxing News 24

Norfolk, Virginia-Abdullah Mason (19-0, 17 ko) first shone on Saturday night, and he didn’t disappoint. He showed his top boxing skills and put it on the show. Mason separated Jeremiah Nakathilo landed 51.4 percent of her blows and pulled it 75 to 26 in total blows. The fight was stopped by one second in the fifth round because Nakathila said he was not good and could not see from the left eye. Mason scored his ninth consecutive knockout, and his total knockout rates improved slightly to 89.4 percent.

WBO President Gustavo Olivieri posted on X, “Abdullah Mason looks better every time; sharper, smarter, more dangerous. He develops in a serious force … On the way to the WBO world title.” He also published an empty title procedure. The WBO light title became empty when Keyshawn Davis was taken away from the title when he failed to make weight by reaching 4.3 pounds over a light border of 135 pounds. The empty WBO process, as Olivieri pointed out:

1. Re: Free WBO Lightweight Title (135 Lbs.)

For information purposes, WBO procedure when the title is empty:

The Championship Committee selects the two best ranked candidates (or, in some cases, best four for the cash register) to compete for a free place

2. Once the candidates are selected, they have been awarded up to 30 days to negotiate (command) for the finalization and signing of the title contract.

3. If the agreement is not reached during this period, the president of the WBO or any of the sides may call a pouch offer, which must happen 10 days after that.

4. Any of the parties can call an offer for a purse during the negotiating phase at any time.

5. If a handbag offer is held, the winner of the offer must be conducted in a period of at least 45 or more than 90 days from the judgment of promotional rights.

WBO currently has nokes ranked in the first place, and Abdullah Mason as a number two in a light ladder. If top fighters match each other as stated above, it would mean a fight between Noakes and Mason. The exact question was asked Mason at a press conference after the fight, and he stated that it was the match he wanted. He wanted to become a champion and claimed he would fight anyone to become a champion. He is also ready to go to the United Kingdom to face Noakes if necessary.

Mason seems to be ready for the next step up. Norfolk considers the second home after a standing ovation, but expressed interest in the head in his hometown of Cleveland, Ohio. Everything points to the championship match very quickly. Abdullah has a very bright future; It is professional both inside and outside the ring. He is dedicated to his craft and has great support for his family. His father and brothers are with him at all times – during a camp and fighting night. Abdullah’s opportunity arrived before it was expected, but now that he is here, he has to use a moment and strive for size.
