The Boxing Insider notebook for the week of August 19th to August 26th covering the comings and goings in the sport of boxing that you might have missed.
Thompson Boxing Promotions “New Blood” Results
The main event from Thompson Boxing Promotions “New Blood” boxing series featured an all-action brawl between featherweights: Juan Reyes of Riverside, Calif. and Jonathan Arellano of Ontario, Calif. Reyes and Arellano, former sparring partners that perhaps know each other better than they should, thrilled the capacity crowd at the Omega Products Outdoor Arena in Corona, California.
The draw ended with scores of 76-74 for Reyes, while the other two judges scored it even, 75-75.
In the co-main event, Colombian middleweight prospect Alex Theran calmly stalked Texan Justin Williams through six rounds to remain undefeated scoring a unanimous decision victory sweeping it on all three scorecards 60-54, 60-54 and 60-54. Theran bettered his record to 15-0, 8 KOs, while Williams goes home to Texas with a record of 4-9-2, 2 KOs.
Omar Narvaez Retains Title
Omar Narvaez (40-1-2) fought in his home country in Chubut, Argentina and defeated the overmatched Hiroyuki Hisataka (22-11-1) in the junior bantamweight division. Narvaez was in control the whole bout and connected with numerous unanswered punches before the referee stopped the bout at 1:26 of the tenth round.
Murata and Linares Victorious in Japan
Ryota Murata (1-0) was a gold medalist for Japan in the 2012 Olympics and he fights in the middleweight division. Murata took the unusual route of fighting an experienced veteran in his professional debut and defeated Akio Shibata. Murata scored a knockdown in the first round and had Shibota badly hurt in the second round, before the referee stopped the fight at 2:24.
Jorge Linares (34-3) fought on the same card and easily defeated Berman Sanchez (26-6-3). Linares knocked Sanchez down three times in the second round before the bout was stopped. The end came at 1:09 of the second round.

Sergio Mora vs. Peter Quillin? Mora Wants the Fight
With undefeated IBF middleweight champion Peter Quillin still in search of an opponent for his upcoming title defense October 26 in Atlantic City, former WBC junior middleweight champion and current world-rated middleweight contender Sergio Mora says that he would be honored to step in to face the champ.
“Peter Quillin is a really strong, big, and avoided middleweight champion. He is annihilating everyone that he steps in against and because of that, not many people are jumping at the chance to face him. I have never been afraid to face any fighter in my entire career though and the same goes for Peter,” stated Mora.
Mora continued, “His style reminds me a lot of the late great Vernon Forrest, so I would be very familiar with the task at hand and would love the opportunity to take on that challenge. Being able to return to the network where I had the biggest win of my entire career, to take on another highly regarded world champion, would truly be an absolute honor.”

Dereck Chisora: I want get the European Title, then Wladimir Klitchsko
Former World Title challenger Dereck Chisora, who recently enjoyed the best win of his career against Malik Scott, made headlines on his short break to Ibiza last month when the Finchley heavyweight came face to face with long-time rival and World Heavyweight Champion, Wladimir Klitchsko.
Chisora opened up about the meeting and reiterated his desire to face the younger Klitchsko brother in the ring in the next year. Chisora, who is mandatory challenger for the European Heavyweight Title, is part of a bumper line-up at the Copper Box Arena’s debut boxing event on the 21st September, headlined by Billy Joe Saunders’ British title defence against John Ryder.
Chisora, who stopped the previously unbeaten Scott in the sixth round, said: “I want to get hold of that European Title, because that will set up a shot against Wladimir that I’ve been waiting on for 2 years.”
“ I told him when I bumped into him in Ibiza that we had unfinished business and that I was coming for his World title belts. He seemed nervous about my presence but told me that he’s ready to make it happen”
The controversial star continued: “ It’s as bigger fight as any out there for him, with all that happened in Germany when I faced the elder brother. If I get hold of the European Title then it makes me the natural opponent for him. He’s much better facing me, a live opponent that will get the whole world’s attention, rather than getting another body that won’t come to win.”
“ It would be a very different fight to the Vitali fight, I’m a lot more experienced now, and experience was the only thing that beat me in that fight. It would be a very long night for Wladimir!”
