Roman Gonzalez is back. Srisaket Sor Rungvisai is about to follow him.
Rungvisai (47-5-1, 41 KOs) is coming back from a one-year layoff on April 4 against former flyweight champion Amnat Ruenroeng (20-3, 6 KOs) in Bangkok, WP Boxing announced this weekend.
It’ll be Sor Rungvisai’s first bout since he lost his junior bantamweight title in a narrow decision to Juan Fransciso Estrada last April 26 at The Forum in Inglewood, California.
The comeback sets up a potential third fight between Sor Rungvisai (47-5-1, 41 KOs) and Estrada (40-3, 27 KOs). Sor Rungvisai won a majority decision over Estrada in February 2018.
It also creates another potential trilogy at 115 pounds. Gonzalez put himself back into mix with a victory over Kal Yafai for a junior bantamweight title on the Mikey Garcia-Jessie Vargas card Saturday in Frisco, Texas.
Gonzalez, once atop pound-for-pound lists, lost back to back fights against Sor Rungvisai in 2017.
