Thursday night in Texas, U.S.A. boxing's youngest world champion Juan Diaz successfully retained his WBA championship as expected against French veteran Julien Lorcy by unanimous decision. The announcement told that Diaz retained his title by considerably wide margins on all of the judges scorecards.
At just twenty-one years of age, Diaz stays in the reckoning for high-profile title fights and the possibility of exciting unification matches against WBO and consensus lightweight champion Diego Corrales or WBC champion Jose Luis Castillo.
