The World Boxing Association (WBA) Championships Committee has ordered the teams behind German based WBA Heavyweight Champion Manuel Charr, and WBA No.3 Fres Oquendo to start negotiations for their mandatory fight.
Charr won WBA belt last Saturday after beating Russian Alexander Ustinov by 12 round unanimous decision, while Oquendo has a New York court order to fight for the WBA World Title in the Heavyweight division.
Both parties were duly notified on November 26 and must reach an agreement before December 22, 2017, or the fight will be called to a purse bid with both boxers taking an equal split of the purse bid.
