"Where’s Barrios?" — Norman Calls Out Champion After Stopping Cuevas

WBO welterweight champion Bryan Norman (27-0, 21 KOs) has made it clear who he wants next following his third-round TKO victory over Derrieck Cuevas (27-2-1, 19 KOs) on March 30.

There are other belts, other champions. Until I’m at the top, there’s nothing to talk about. I’m not waiting for anyone.

Barrios is hiding somewhere, doing his thing. Where is he? I want to take his belt. And after that — unify the titles by facing the winner of the April 12 fight (Jaron Ennis vs. Eimantas Stanionis). I’m an assassin. Once I sign the contract, my full attention is locked on you,” Norman said.

Norman’s dominant win over Cuevas solidified his status as a major player in the welterweight division, and he’s now eyeing unification — starting with a potential clash against WBC champion Mario Barrios.
