Alberto Palmetta and Joel Marcos Mafauad are set to face off for the World Boxing Association (WBA) Fedelatin welterweight belt this Saturday night at the Casino Buenos Aires in Argentina’s capital city.
Palmetta, a former world title contender who is coming off a recent loss, will have the chance to compete for the regional belt in front of his home crowd. This match promises to be an exciting one for all spectators.
At 34 years old, Palmetta will be returning to fight in Argentina for the first time since March 2021. A victory in this fight will be crucial for his career as it could open up new opportunities for him on the international stage.
On the other hand, Mafauad, who is 27 years old and less experienced than Palmetta, is determined to prove himself in this match despite being considered the underdog. Known for his strong boxing skills and unwavering determination, Mafauad poses a significant challenge to Palmetta.
Palmetta boasts a record of 19 wins, 3 losses, and 13 knockouts, while Mafauad has 11 wins, 1 loss, and 4 knockouts to his name.
