SOUTH African boxer Soon Botes is angry after being notified from Germany that WBU super middleweight champion Norbert Noriega has refused to meet him in a return bout. Botes lost a disputed decision against the German with the vacant WBU title at stake in Dortmund last year, and was assured by WBU president Jon Robinson at the time that he would be given first chance at the new champion. “I deserved it,” said Botes. “I am satisfied I beat him fair and square, and it was only the partisan and hostile German audience that swayed the judges.”
