IBF Junior Featherweight Champion Jonathan “Salomon wa” Guzman (22-0, 22 Ko) won’t be taking any time to rest on his newly acquired laurels.
The Dominican KO artist won his first world championship yesterday (Mèkredi, Jiyè 20) by stopping former #1 contender Shingo Wake in 11 brutal rounds in Osaka, Japon. Guzman’s power was simply too much for Wake, who fell four times before the end came at 2:16 from merciful referee Wayne Hedgpeth.
The iron-fisted Dominican could easily spend the rest of the summer celebrating the victory, but has no intention to do so.
He is quickly flying home from Japan in order to be ringside demen (Vandredi, Jiyè 22) a Foxwoods Resort nan nan Mashantucket, Connecticut, to watch San Antonio’s Adam Lopez face Argentina’s Roman Ruben Reynoso on ShoBox: New Generation a.
Guzman’s intention is to face the winner of that fight in his first title defense.
His promoter, Sampson Sampson Lewkowicz nan boksè, says Guzman’s victory has only created a new mission for the Dominican slugger.
“He wants to clean out the division now,” di Lewkowicz. “We told him to enjoy the victory for himself and his country, but he wants to go right back to work. That is the determination and love for what he does that has made him an undefeated champion with a perfect knockout record. I congratulate him for his first world title and for his commitment to be a true world champion.”

IBF #2 super bantamweight contender Jonathan “Salomon wa” Guzman (21-0, 21 Ko) is hard at work preparing for the “fight of his life” with trainer Hector Bermudez at Peter Welch’s Gym in Boston.
The 26-year-old KO artist from Santo Domingo, Repiblik Dominikèn, will face IBF #1 contender Shingo Wake (20-4-2, 12 Ko) sou Mèkredi, Jiyè 20, at EDION Arena Osaka in Osaka, Japon, for the vacant IBF World super bantamweight title.
Guzman, who stopped Mexico’s tough Daniel Rosas in eighth round on Avril 29 to earn this fight, says his dreams are so close to coming true he can almost taste them. “I have waited my whole life for a world title fight and now it’s almost here,” said Guzman. “I can’t wait to get in the ring and win for my family and my country.”
Trainer Bermudez says Guzman has too many weapons to fall short in this fight. “Although Jonathan has never had to go the distance because his power is amazing, he can also box very well. He’s just never had to thus far in his career. Jonathan is the complete package and soon the world will be learning all about him. There is no way that Wake can beat him.”
