Erick “Minipacman” Rosa will make the first defense of his World Boxing Association (WBA) minimum weight world championship on Friday against Panamanian Carlos Ortega.
The young Dominican will have the opportunity to show his belt in front of his people in Dominican Republic, in a promising clash due to the styles of both fighters.
At only 22 years of age, Rosa managed to obtain the 105 lbs. belt by defeating a great veteran like the Filipino Vic Saludar in his most recent fight last December 12. Now, as champion, he wants to give another great demonstration to his public.
La “Arañita” Ortega is a 32-year-old fighter with good experience and aggressive boxing. The Panamanian knows the opportunity he has and is motivated to win the crown.
Rosa has 5 wins, 1 of them by knockout. Ortega has 15 wins, 6 losses, 3 draws and 6 knockouts.
