French-Cameroonian boxer Christian M’billi-Assomo, looking for a chance at the world super-middleweight level, beat Ukrainian Sergiy Derevyanchenko on points on Saturday, August 17 in Quebec City (Canada). A rising star in his category and therefore still undefeated (28 wins including 23 by KO), M’billi-Assomo put on a show against the most experienced opponent he has faced so far (15 wins including 10 by KO, now 6 losses). He won on points unanimously by the three judges (110-90, 99-91, 98-92). The 29-year-old boxer, born in Cameroon and representing France in the ring, now hopes to face Mexican star Saul “Canelo” Alvarez in 2025, who holds the WBA, WBC, WBO and IBF super-middleweight belts. “Canelo” only fights in May and September, during the two main Mexican holidays. “I want to be world champion,” proclaimed Christian M’billi-Assomo, ranked in the world’s Top 5 and therefore a candidate for a fight for a belt against Alvarez, who has a date on September 14 with Puerto Rican Edgar Berlanga.
