World Boxing Organization (WBO) light flyweight champion Angel “Tito” Acosta (19-1, 19 KOs) scored a spectacular second round KO over Abraham “Choko” Rodriguez (23-2, 11 KOs) on Saturday night at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. An Acosta left hook laid out Rodriguez. Time was 1:02.
“I want to thank my team and my family,” said Angel Acosta. “I couldn’t have done this without them. We were working on the left hook in the gym. My team told me to use my jab to keep looking for him, and then I found him. I want to fight this year or when the year stars.”
