Posted on | September 22, 2009 | No Comments

Daniel “The Haitian Sensation” Edouard (22-2-2 KOs 13) the current WBA Fedelatin Middleweight Champion adds a WBO #15 middleweight ranking to his growing list of accomplishments. Edouard, also ranked WBA #8 at middleweight and WBC #11 at super welterweight, was informed about the new ranking recently.

“It is certainly an honor. You work hard every day in hopes of climbing up the ladder towards a title shot. I truly feel blessed.”

Edouard is in preparation for a defense of his WBA Fedelatin title in Panama City, Panama at the Arena Roberto Duran against Nicaraguan fighter Wilmer Gonzalez on October 9.

“I am excited about going back to Panama. The boxing fans there are great and they know their boxing! They have a rich boxing history with legends such as Roberto Duran and Eusebio Pedroza so you have to be ready to put on a great show when you’re fighting on Panama’s soil.”

When asked about his boxing future beyond his Panama fight and who he would like to face next Edouard went on to say, “I am focused on Gonzalez. One fight at a time. Win this fight first then I’ll think about who is next. Square Ring will ultimately make a good solid decision as to who I fight next, when that fight takes place and where that fight takes place. My job is to fight the fighter that is in front of me so that is what I am focused on right now.”

The October 9 boxing card is promoted by Premium Boxing Promotions and will feature 12 bouts.
