Moreno.
Moreno is too classy for Urina. WBA Bantamweight Super Champion Anselmo "Chemito" Moreno of Panama made a successful 12th defense of his world title by outclassing and outsmarting Colombian slugger William Urina (24-3, 20 KOs) over 12 rounds Saturday night at Megapolis Convention Center of the Hard Rock Hotel in Panama City, Panama.
In a fight that had as special ringside guest the President of Panama Ricardo Martinelli and Mexican Hall-of-Famer trainer Ignacio "Nacho" Beristain, the 28 year-old Moreno had no trouble in dominating his challenger with lightning speed and an outstanding slick technique while landing a superb variety of quality punches.
Official scorecards were 118-110 (twice) and 116-112 all in favor the Panamanian "Chemito" Moreno (34-2-1, 12 KOs), a top 118-pounder who gets back into the winning column after being outpointed in a higher weight class by reigning featherweight king Abner Mares last November at the Staples Center.
Today's card in Panama was a successful production of international promoter Sampson Lewkowicz in association with the Hard Rock Hotel Panama, aired live in Latin America by TyC Sports.
