MIDecember 12, 1992 - Michael Carbajal's successful defense of his IBF LIGHT FLYWEIGHT WORLD TITLE - sensational knockout victory over former #1 IBF Light-Flyweight contender Robinson Cuesta. Both fighters undefeated - Carbajal's record (26-0) Cuesta' s record (23-0). The fight occurred in front of over 15k fans - standing room only - at the sold out America West Arena then home of @suns in Phoenix, Arizona - December of 1992. @oscardelahoya fought on my undercard.
2 Hall of Famers: Al Bernstein of @showtimeboxing called the fight and @realmichaelbuffer of @dazn was the ring announcer. Cuesta featured a long reach, but Carbajal was able to nullify his impressive reach by getting inside and firing off tremendous combinations. That great work is displayed in this video clip of Michael Carbajal sending Cuesta down 2x on the canvas following a vicious left hook. @ibfboxing @toprank @crystinaponcher @whoisrichie @robinson_cuesta @chiquitaglz @wbcboxing @wbcmoro @cletoreyesboxing @worldboxingorg @rsaenzfox10 @teammikeygarcia @breal @kodiakboxingcollection @boxingbully @turkialalshik @unroundmasmx @holygrailboxing @showtimeboxing @HBO @javiersototv @cbssports @nbcsports @usaboxing @breal @p4pglory @usaboxingalumni @internationalboxinghalloffame @nvbhofofficial @ringtv @garciaboxing #michaelcarbajal #manitasdepiedra #stillrelevant #michaelcarbajals9thstgym #usaboxing #usaboxingalumniassociation #olympics #ibf #wbc #wbo #9thstandfillmore #boxinglife #worldchampion #legend #PhoenixArizona #neverforgetwhereyoucamefrom
