FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LAS VEGAS (March 17, 2012)—World Ranked Cruiserweight contender BJ Flores will be keeping a close eye on Italy today as he is line to meet the winner of the WBC Silver Belt fight between fellow Italians Giacobbe Fragomeni and Silvio Branco.

The fight will be a battle of world champions as Fragomeni (29-3-1, 12 KO’s) and Branco (62-10-2, 37 KO’s) not only compete for the belt by a lofty position in the WBC rankings.

Flores currently sits at number four in the WBC knows that he may end of facing the winner for a chance at the world title.

“As it looks now, I will be able to get the winner in an elimination bout”, said Flores.

“The WBC mandated champion Krzystof Wlodarczyk and Francisco Palacios to rematch and that probably wont happen for a few months and that should up nicely for me to fight the winner of Saturday’s fight and then with a victory I will get the winner of the world title fight”

“I have been the most active Cruiserweight as I have fought three times in a six month period and I feel that my ranking is a reward for that”, said Flores, who sports a record of 27-1-1 with seventeen knockouts.

“I am working hard to improve and get faster and stronger. My timing is back and I now feel ready for the top cruisers in the world. I look forward to facing either Fragomeni or Branco in a big fight that will set up a championship fight.”

“Also I will be in camp with Floyd Mayweather helping him prepare for his May 5th title defense against Miguel Cotto. I am Staying in great shape in the meantime. I love training and love how things are going right now”

“I have been very busy training and broadcasting and right now my confidence is sky high and I just want to be able to fight for the world title before the year is out”

BJ Flores is ranked number-three by the WBO, number-four by the WBC, number-seven by the WBA & number-fourteen by the IBF and can be seen next Saturday night as part of the broadcast team on NBC Sports Network that will call the Zab Judah – Vernon Paris IBF Jr. Welterweight elimination bout from Brooklyn, New York.
