“Pollo” Aguilar soars as  WBC youth champion

Recently appointed RING TELMEX-TELCEL fighter, Omar “Pollo” Aguilar, has burst on to the scene as an exciting  prospect, blessed with  exceptional  punching power, that`s  making him a firm fan favorite.

“Pollo” (15-0-0, 14 ko’s), explosively  knocked out Venezuelan based in Tijuana, Francisco “Franky” Cuadrado (12-1-0, 9 ko’s), to become World Boxing Council Super lightweight  Youth champion.

His Dad and coach, Omar Aguilar, says  Saturday’s victory over “Franky” Cuadrado shows that his lad  is ready for great things in boxing.

The youth title is designed for young professional fighters taking their first steps in the pro ranks.  The maximum age to dispute the title is 23 years 11 months.

A clear example of how valuable, nurturing  and important this championship is, can be seen in the number of champions who have conquered this crown before passing through to absolute world title. Among them are:
Samuel Peter, Krzysztof Wlodarczyk, Chad Dawson, Julio Cesar Chávez Jr., Saúl Álvarez, Kermit Cintron, Timothy Bradley, Danny Garcia, Mike Anchondo, Jose Pedraza, Humberto Soto, Tomoki Kameda, Leo Santa, Jorge Arce, Wanheng Menayothin and Devin Haney.
