Ricardo Sandoval Confirmed as Special Guest at the WBC Annual Convention

The World Boxing Council has confirmed the attendance of WBC flyweight world champion Ricardo “Niño” Sandoval at its Annual Convention, which will take place from November 30 to December 5 in Bangkok, Thailand.

The event will bring together historical champions, legends, promoters, trainers, and rising talents in what promises to be a true celebration of global boxing.

Throughout the Convention there will be conferences, round tables, fan activities, tributes to iconic figures, and the traditional gala dinner, where remarkable contributors to the green-and-gold legacy are honored.

Born February 5, 1999, in Rialto, California, Ricardo Sandoval has become one of the most explosive fighters in the flyweight division. With an offensive style, calculated aggression, and relentless pace, he has earned the respect of fans and the sport’s elite.

Sandoval captured the WBC flyweight world title with a dominant victory over Kenshiro Teraji, dethroning one of Japan’s most formidable champions. That triumph not only earned him the green-and-gold belt, but also cemented him as one of the most feared men at 112 pounds.

Despite his youth, Sandoval has demonstrated remarkable technical maturity, combining power, consistency, and an unshakeable mentality on big fight nights. His name already sits among the division’s premier references in an always action-packed weight class.

The WBC celebrates the presence of the flyweight champion in Bangkok, recognizing his meteoric rise, discipline, and dedication to the sport. Ricardo “El Niño” Sandoval represents the vibrant present of boxing and a promise of greatness for the future of the green-and-gold belt.
