Mexico's Edgar Sosa made the fourth defence of his WBC World Light-flyweight Title against countryman Jesus Iribe. Sosa won the title in a vacant title opportunity against American Brian Viloria at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas ten months earlier.

Iribe would go on to be a three-time world title challenger but, on this night he found the champion far too much and lost by wide margins on the scorecards.

Scores: Miguel Angel Moran 119-109 | Humberto Olivares 120-108 | Gelasio Perez Huerta 120-108.
