GOMEZ VERSUS MOLONEY NEXT MONTH

HERLAN Gomez is set for the toughest challenge of his career as he squares off against former world champion Jason Moloney in an eight-round bantamweight bout on December 6 this year.

Their encounter will be held at the Gold Coast Convention Center in Broadbeach, Australia.

Gomez of Negros Occidental is looking to bounce back after suffering a unanimous decision defeat at the hands of Tanzanian prospect Kalolo Amiri last May.

Prior to that setback, Gomez had won nine straight bouts and remained unbeaten for two years.
