José “Barretas” Pinzón and Raúl Hirales traveled to Colombia to play a couple of secondary titles, respectively. The results of both fights spelled a bad night for Mexican boxing in Colombia.
“Barretas” Pinzón faced Juan del Ángel for the World Boxing Council Latin Middleweight Title.
Pinzón was evidenced in his technique and his stamina. He had an important and frequent hit, which should have been enough to make a difference but in the end did not help him to prevail against the Colombian, who was left with the vacant title in his possession.
