On February 15, the Federación Argentina de Boxeo stadium in Buenos Aires will be the stage for a high-stakes battle as Argentina’s own Maximiliano Robledo and Alberto Melián square off for the WBA Fedelatin Featherweight title.

Robledo, an active competitor with five fights in the past two years, enters the ring with a record of 10 wins (6 by knockout) and just a single loss.

Melián, on the other hand, brings a more seasoned résumé with 12 victories (7 by stoppage), 2 defeats, and a draw. Riding a seven-fight unbeaten streak, he has notched two knockouts in his last three outings.

This all-Argentine showdown will serve as the main event of an exciting card in the nation’s capital, with both fighters looking to claim regional supremacy and take a step closer to the world stage.
