IBF orders eliminator between Iglesias and Lele Sadjo

International Boxing Federation (IBF) have ordered Osleys Iglesias (13-0, 12 KOs) and Kevin Lele Sadjo (24-0, 21 KOs) to fight each-other in final eliminator.

Winner will fight for the world title. IBF champion actually is William Scull (23-0, 9 KOs) who will fight Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (62-2-2, 39 KOs) for undisputed super-middleweight title on May 3.

Sadjo was supposed to fight Christian Mbilli (28-0, 23 KOs) but unhappiness of Mbilli’s team with conditions surrounding date in France, means that Iglesias will replace him as opponent of Sadjo.

“Iglesias is available and willing,” Camille Estephan of Eye of the Tiger, the promoter of Iglesias and Mbilli, told BoxingScene. He had by then already posted on social media: “IBF has ordered Iglesias vs Sadjo. They say: let’s go. We are ready. More news soon.”
