Lázaro Álvarez's Victory in Professional Boxing

March 14, 2023

Three-time world champion Lázaro Álvarez defeated Venezuelan Willmank Canónico in 10 rounds and won the lightweight title of the Central American and Caribbean Boxing Federation (FECARBOX).

In Guanajuato, Mexico, the also holder of three Olympic bronze medals earned unanimous vote from the judges (97-93, 96-94x2) to remain undefeated in five presentations and bring the first crown of Domadores de Cuba to that level.

It was the 20th success in 21 fights for that franchise, and according to ESPNKnockOut the star from Pinar del Río showed authority to reach the top of one of the organizations affiliated with the World Boxing Council.

"The Cuban dominated the fight," noted one of the messages distributed by that network on the social media twitter, where it can also be read that he imposed style and rhythm from the beginning of the action.

Other assessments highlight that he preserved his space on the canvas and responded with technique to the attacks of his opponent, who arrived at that commitment with a record of 12 wins (10 KO) and only two losses.

The reviews also mention that Lázaro increased the attack as the fight progressed, presented good defense and made his opponent miss quite a bit.
