Celestino Caballero still being avoided by Featherweights, so he may move to Super Featherweight

As previously reported by BoxingScene.com a few days ago, WBA super bantamweight champion Celestino Caballero (34-2, 23KOs) is willing to rise by two weight divisions to challenge interim-WBA super featherweight champion Jorge Solis (39-2-2, 28KOs).

Since our report, Caballero's promoter Lou DiBella reached out to Top Rank to discuss the possibility of Caballero-Solis. The fight was also mentioned to HBO. The network expressed some interest in picking up the fight, if a deal can be reached. DiBella plans to hold further discussions with Top Rank.

"There is some interest in the fight [from Top Rank]. We plan to speak further. Caballero is one of the best pound for pound fighters in the world and he wants to prove it. He doesn't have any problem moving to 130-pounds to fight Jorge Solis. Caballero will fight anyone," DiBella told BoxingScene.com.

Should be a nice match up if its made

Wonder if its put together with another fight

Caballero is starting to look like everything PW should be. Uses his physical advantages in the ring. Calls out guys who should fight him. Goes after other good fights when those guys back off. The only time I hear him talk, it's to say something hilarious. Too bad he's already getting older.

What big money fights are at 130? He should just stick around at featherweight.

Nobody wants him at Featherweight, both JuanMa and Gamboa are too scared to risk a fight with him.

So fighting Solis is better? He should try to fight John. That fight would have to take place in Indonesia tho.
