It was a big weekend in Nación Argentina with Saturday night providing the lion's share of the action. As always, the biggest bill took place at Estadio Luna Park in Buenos Aires, with Juan Carlos Reveco, 17-0 (8), retaining his WBA Light Flyweight belt for the first time with a devastating fifth round KO of Mexican visitor Humberto Pool, 14-5-3 (9).
Also at Luna Park, Argentine Heavyweight Champ Lisandro Ezequiel Diaz, 16-7-1 (13), faced Sebastian Ignacio Ceballos, 10-5-1 (5), for the third time over the course of four bouts.
With each man coming into the contest with one victory apiece against each other, it was bound to be a difficult struggle and the close contest was broken wide open in tenth and final round when Diaz floored Ceballos enroute to posting a split decision victory.
Welterweight Rodolfo Ezequiel Martinez, 25-1-1 (9), furthered his title shot chances with a six round unanimous decision over Rodrigo Gomez, 12-2 (6).
At Club Echague in Parana, southpaw Ulises David Lopez, 18-1 (9), kept his Argentine Light Middle title with a third round KO of Diego Diaz Gallardo, 11-2-1 (6).
Another southpaw, former WBC Mundo Hispano Lightweight titlist, Diego Martin Alzugaray, 22-15-4 (3), was on the bill, defeating Ricardo Fabricio Chamorro, 18-24-3 (10), by third round disqualification.
Super middle Juan Carlos Villagra, 12-13 (6), defeated Daniel Benito Carriqueo, 6-16 (1), over six rounds.
