Aladdin Casino, Las Vegas, NV, USA - Filipino-American WBC Light Flyweight Champ, Brian "Hawaiian Punch" Viloria succeeded in his first title defense against Mexican Jose Antonio "El Jaguar" Aguirre, Saturday night - February 18. The champion won the fight via a hard fought 116-112, 117-111, 116-112 Unanimous Decision.
The 25yrs old Viloria, predicted a 4th round knockout victory, but it didn't happen. But what did happen was, he fought well behind a great jab to win fight over his veteran opponent. The champion though needs to learn a lot more. He seem to lack a killer instinct, as he usually backs off after connecting with few good combinations.
Despite the fight being just a Unanimous Decision win for Brian, it was very clear that he won the fight. After 12 rounds, his face remained clean while his opponent's was full of bumps. Also, Aguirre's nose bled profusely during rounds 10 thru 12, turning his white trunks to pink.

Viloria improved his unblemished record to 19wins (12KOs) and is now looking forward to move up in weight to be able to face Mexican WBC Flyweight Champ Jorge Arce in a surefire megabuck fight. Meanwhile, Jose Antonio Aguirre dropped his third straight title bout and fell to 33wins (20KOs), 5losses and 1draw.
