New world champion ready to face pound-for-pound superstar

One fighter is aiming high.

Angelo Leo arrived on the big stage earlier this month with a sensational stoppage over Luis Alberto Lopez.  

With victory, Leo became IBF featherweight champion and now he has several lucrative opportunities in front of him including a showdown with Naoya Inioue. 

The Japanese superstar is currently ruling the super-bantamweight division but if he moves to featherweight then Leo could be the ideal opponent.  

The New Mexico fighter is eager to continue testing himself and he’s open to sharing the ring with the pound-for-pound fighter. 

“Everything is a lot more intense so we’re ready to go. I want to fight all the champions,” said Leo in the aftermath of his win over Lopez. 

“Whether it be Rafael Espinoza for a unification bout, Naoya Inoue, whoever it may be.”
