In a rematch between two former world champions, Thailand heavy-handed warrior Srisaket Sor Rungvisai will collide against slick, taller Mexican Carlos "El Principe" Cuadras of Guamuchil, Sinaloa, for the vacant WBC super flyweight world title in a hot rematch war set for February 5 in the United States at a venue still to be defined.

News of the exciting Srisaket's vs Cuadras battle for the vacant Strap were confirmed to NotiFight by Cuadras' coach Manuel López.

Interestingly enough, Sor Ruengvisai and Cuadras already traded heavy blows 7 years ago in a fast-paced rumble won by the Mexican via technical decision in eight rounds.

In that match in Ciudad de Mexico, "El Principe" Cuadras suffered a severe gash over his left eye from an accidental clash of heads. 

Las Vegas referee Jay Nady deducted a point from Srisaket under WBC's accidental butt rule; the fight was stopped and Cuadras was declared the winner and new world champion as he was ahead in the scorecards. 

Fans can be 100% sure that Cuadras (39-4-1, 27 KO’s)) will try to repeat the win in whatever possible way.

Meanwhile, the fearsome Thailand warrior will as well come out swing hard with the same mean intentions, making this one war a hugely attractive and exciting rumble that no boxing fan can afford to miss.

That's precisely why both fighters are already copiously sweating, as so much is at stake.

"Cuadras is at the moment training at high-elevation at the Otomí Center training facility, where he will carry out his intense preparation for the important duel," assured his coach Manuel López.

Coach Lopez will be by his side throughout the month of January, making sure that his fighter arrives on fight night in his very best physical shape.

"We are going to work hard on speed and counter-punching," explained López, son of renowned late Mexican boxing manage/coach Lorenzo López.

"The chances that Carlos comes out with the victory are high," assured the coach.

"That is why we are training hard.  The whole month of January we will be in concentration, fine-tuning our strategy, correcting any mistakes that Carlos might have and putting much air in his lungs for the thrilling fight.

"Carlos Cudras wants to be world champion again and I want that too.  We are going to bring that WBC super flyweight championship to Mexico."

Ranked as # 3 by the WBC, Carlos Cuadras has, in fact, never stopped training.  That’s because he knows his opponent so well.

"The Thailand former champion Srisaket Sor Rungvisai is a very strong fighter. We know his capabilities, his style, his experience.  Plus, the Thai punches really hard.  So we are going to work on those factors and others to effectively counter Srisaket Sor Rungvisai," coach López concluded.

By the same token, the 35-year-old Sor Rungvisai (50-5-1, 43 KO's) is also focused on his preparation with his usual M-150 red & yellow team, headed by his long-time veteran manager/promoter Surachart Pisitwuttinan and sons Titipong and Thainchai “Bank,” getting sharp to do what he can do best: stop opponents.
