Verde dominated the ring from the start, sending his opponent to the canvas twice before the referee stopped the fight.
After this victory, Marco Verde begins his professional career promisingly. It is expected that under the tutelage of the Canelo Team, he will achieve great success in the world of boxing, thanks to his style and the mentors supporting him, including Saúl Álvarez.
