Cristian Ricardo Lucio Mijares

Hailing from Mexico, Cristian Ricardo Lucio Mijares, stands at 5 feet, 6 inches tall. Born on October 2, 1981, he is currently 26 years old. At this young age, he has already won a world boxing title and has defended his title for several matches. When one mentions the name Cristian Mijares, everyone knows that they’re talking about the Super flyweight champion from Mexico.

One of his most memorable matches was held on June 3, 2006 when he defeated Aldaberto Davila for the Mexican Super Flyweight title. It was a well-played match, ending in six rounds before Cristian Mijares was hailed victor. In 2006, Crisitan Mijares was given the WBC Super flyweight championship title after defeating Katsushige Kawashima for the interim title and after Masamori Tokuyama officially vacated the title on December 6, 2006.

In the succeeding year, Mijares was busy on court defending his current title. A bloody match between Mijares and Jorge Arce was held on April 14, 2007 where Mijares succeeded in defending his title. Viewers stood in awe of Mijares as it was the first defeat of Arce since the year 1999.

Unexpectedly enough, Mijares even won the match by a wide margin, ending the game with 119-109, 118-110 and 117-111. This wasn’t the only match Mijares would find himself defending the WBC super flyweight title. He had to defend his title three more times, successfully defeating Teppei Kikui, Franck Gorjux and Jose Navarro.

May 17, 2008 was the most awaited day in Mijares’ career. It was on this date that the WBA super flyweight was within reach. The match turned out victorious for Mijares and he finally unified his WBC title with the WBA title previously held by Alexander Munoz. Mijares certainly has come a long way. He currently has a career record of 35 wins (14 wins by knockout), 3 losses, and 2 draws.
