Leandro Blanc is the new WBA Fedelatin Champion – World Boxing Association

Leandro Jose Blanc became the new World Boxing Association (WBA) Fedelatin Super Flyweight champion with a split decision win over Mexican German Valenzuela on Friday night during KO Drugs Argentina.

The Argentine prospect got a good victory over the visitor after battling for 10 rounds to get cards of 96-93, 96-93 and 93-98.

Blanc managed to knock Valenzuela down in the sixth round to confirm his dominance and in the end take an important victory that keeps him undefeated after 6 professional fights, of which he has won 3 by knockout.
