The man from Cordoba has held the WBO belt for six years and has now retained his title successfully 13 times.

At the Eston Sports Academy in Middlesbrough, England, featherweight Paul Truscott, 11-0 (1), posted a twelve round decision over Ghanaian southpaw Osumanu Akaba, 10-4 (8), to capture the vacant Commonwealth Featherweight title.
Heading way down to South Africa, super flyweight Simphiwe "Golden Master" Nongqayi, 14-0 (6), clambered off the floor in the third round to boss Argentina's Julio David Roque Ler, 25-5 (14), the rest of the way and retain the WBF crown for the third time. More...
