Cuba’s La Cruz to 16th round in World Championships

Belgrade, Oct 29 (Prensa Latina) Two-time Olympic champion Julio Cesar la Cruz, in the 92- kilogram division, won Cuba's eighth fight on Friday at the Boxing World Championships, being held here until November 6.

At the Stark Arena in Serbia’s capital, the four-time world champion was far superior to his opponent, Bulgary’s Radoslav Pantaleev, whom he defeated by 5-0.

La Cruz, born in Camagüey province, took credit from the judges 30-25, 30-25, 30-25, 30-25, 30-25, 30-25 and 30-26, so he was far superior to the 91-kilogram bronze medalist at the world championships held in Yekaterinburg, Russia, in 2019.

In the 16th round, the captain of the Domadores de Cuba team will fight against Iran’s Toufan Sharifi.
