Our local champion is without doubt a world champion.He used to work at a supermarket in my neighborhood, I never met him though, he was in working in the storage room.He became world champion beating Florante Condes and still worked there for a while.

Unbeaten IBF minimumweight champion Raul “Rayito” Garcia (26-0-1, 16 KOs) retained his title with a sixth round TKO over Ronal Barrera (26-6-1, 16 KOs) on Saturday night at the Stadio Arturo C. Nahl in La Paz, Mexico. The bout was waved off by referee Rafael Ramos due to a cut over Barrara’s right eye.

Raúl "Rayito" García Hirales se ratificó como indiscutible monarca universal de la división paja por la Federación Internacional de Boxeo al finiquitar, la noche de este sábado, su tercera defensa del cinturón liquidando por nocaut técnico en seis asaltos al retador colombiano Ronald Barrera, en una actuación soberbia dejando en claro su notable crecimiento en el boxeo, repitiéndole al sudamericano la dosis y frustrando al mismo la tercera oportunidad que tenía Barrera de conquistar un campeonato del mundo.
