For World Title Fight With Brian Mendoza
World Ranked and Undefeated Junior Middleweight Charles ‘Bad
News’ Conwell, (18-0, 13 KOs), has petitioned the World
Boxing Council (WBC) for a world title fight against WBC
Interim Champion Brian Mendoza, (22-2, 16 KOs). Conwell is
currently ranked #2 in the division by the WBC and managed
by Mark Habibi and Wise Owl Boxing. He is promoted by
DiBella Entertainment.
Said Conwell, “Mendoza had a tremendous knockout victory
over Sebastian Fundora but my time is now. I’m ready for the
challenge of fighting him and to become a world champion.”
Concurred Habibi, “We’re excited about this opportunity for
Charles and look forward to working with the WBC for the
fight to take place in the near future. Charles is ready to
become a world champion now.”
The 25-year-old Conwell last fought on November 26, 2022
defeating hard-hitting Dominican Juan Carlos Abreu. The 2016
U.S. Olympian also holds victories over Juan Carlos Rubio,
Patrick Day, Wendy Toussaint, Madiyar Ashkeyev and Courtney
Pennington.
Mendoza knocked out Sebastian Fundora in spectacular fashion
on April 8 to garner the world title. He has now won three
fights in a row.
