After a yearlong lay-off from the sport of boxing, Mexico?s Alfredo ?Perro? Angulo (junior middleweight, 20-1, 17 KOs) returned to the ring Saturday night and scored a first round knock-out against Joseph Gomez.
Fighting for his new promoter, Golden Boy Promotions, Angulo shed some of the rust he had collected after being inactive due to issues with Gary Shaw Productions and an on-going immigration which will keep him from fighting in the United States.
Many boxing pundits, so-called experts, fans, and this writer, believe Angulo could provide as a real test to rising Mexican baby-face hero and World Boxing Council junior middleweight champ Saul ?Canelo? Alvarez. With Angulo signing with Golden Boy, which also promotes Alvarez, all bureaucratic red tape has in making a bout could be easily sliced.
