LOS ANGELES - Unbeaten Roman Gonzalez won the World Boxing Council super flyweight title with a 12-round unanimous decision over previously undefeated champion Carlos Cuadras. "This was the most difficult fight I have had," said Gonzalez. Until Saturday, no Nicaraguan had ever won a world title in four weight classes and that includes the late legend Arguello. Arguello lost a pair of junior welterweight title fights to Aaron Pryor in 1982 and 1983 in a failed bid to capture his fourth world title. This victory also moves Gonzalez another step closer to challenging for Manny Pacquiao's record as an eight division champion.
