Alan Crenz kicks off his Latin super-lightweight reign with a big KO | OneFootball

Santa Fe native Alan David Crenz (18-2-0, 17 KOs) knocked out Mexico’s Juan Carlos “Bronco” Sánchez López (9-3-1, 6 KOs) in the third round at the Argentine Boxing Federation Stadium and retained his IBF Latin super lightweight title.

A clean right hand to the Aztec fighter’s chin early in round three ended a bout that had already been leaning in Rusito’s favor from the opening exchanges.

In this way, the Argentine boxer made the first defense of the IBF Latin super lightweight belt he won last February 14 in his victory over fellow Mexican Víctor Quezada.

And at 25 years old, “El Rusito,” the hard-hitting fighter from Santo Tomé, remains one of the country’s most important knockout artists, with a 95% stoppage rate in his wins.

In addition, this victory helps him seek to reposition himself, after his run in last year’s WBC Grand Prix, in the 140-pound division within the International Boxing Federation rankings, which currently has no active champion.
