On January 10, a boxing night will take place in Oberhausen, Germany, where Ricardo Nunez (26-7, 22 KOs) and Jadier Herrera (17-0, 15 KOs) will fight for the interim WBC lightweight title. The full champion of the World Boxing Council in this weight category is Shakur Stevenson, who will face Teofimo Lopez at the end of January in the super lightweight division and may continue to perform in a heavier weight category thereafter.

O’Shaquie Foster (24-3, 12 KO) vacated his WBC interim lightweight title, which he won in a bout against Stephen Fulton (23-2, 8 KO) last Saturday, and will focus on continuing his career in the 59 kg weight class. This is stated in the official decree of the Council, which was issued on Thursday. It is also indicated that Foster will receive an additional advantage: "special privileges in lightweight."
