Zayas Aims for Youngest Unified Champ Title

Puerto Rican boxer Xander Zayas is on the cusp of making history as he prepares to fight Abass Baraou. The WBO super-welterweight champion aims to become the youngest unified world champion in boxing if he can defeat Baraou, the WBA 154lb belt-holder. This significant unification bout is scheduled for Saturday night in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

This fight marks Zayas' first since winning his world championship, a moment he described as being "in it for the glory." He previously held the distinction of being boxing's youngest reigning world champion for a brief period. Now, he seeks to reclaim and surpass that milestone by unifying titles and etching his name further into boxing history.
