19-year-old World Boxing Federation
(WBF) Intercontinental Welterweight
champion Lucas Migotti will make his
first defense against Argentina's
Jose Hugo “Chinito” Acevedo on
November 23.
The fight will be the main event of
a show at the Palais Des Sports in
Lattes, on the outskirts of
Montpellier, France.
A pro since March of 2023, Migotti,
9-1 (5), won the title last June
when he stopped Denis Madry from
Poland in the second round.
In former Argentinian and South
American Lightweight champion
Acevedo, 15-6-3 (8), he is facing a
very experienced opponent who will
fancy his chances against the young
champion.
Acevedo (30) turned pro in 2016, and
won the Argentina national title in
April of 2019. Eight months later he
added the South America crown to his
resume.
The challenger has almost as many
championship fights, eight, as
Migotti has fights in total, while
the Frenchman is only entering his
second.
Migotti vs. Acevedo for the WBF
Intercontinental Welterweight title
will be promoted by Boxing Club
Montpellierain.
