Description: According to the World Boxing Council, they fully intend to order a final junior welterweight eliminator between former world champions Adrien Broner and Jorge Linares - provided they comply with the Code of Ethics, says the sanctioning body. Last month, Linares (45-4, 28 KOs) made his junior welterweight debut with a third round knockout of Abner Cotto. It was his first bout since getting stopped by Vasyl Lomachenko at lightweight in May. Broner (33-3-1, 24 KOs), a former world champion at 130, 135, 140 and 147, fought to a twelve round majority draw with Jessie Vargas, at a catch-weight of 144-pounds, in April.
