Filipino pug Jonathan Taconing will challenge World Boxing Council (WBC) world light flyweight champion Ganigan Lopez of Mexico on July 2 at the Arena Coliseo in Mexico City.

“Taconing is in good shape and good condition. I’m very confident he will bring home the world title just like [Johnriel] Casimero did before last month. We will also go to Mexico City to watch and support him,” said Liza Elorde, the co-manager of Taconing.
