Baldomir is Expecting a Big Fight in The United States

By Jhonny Gonzalez

Last week in Argentina, former champion Carlos Baldomir won a tough ten round split decision over Amílcar Funes. The 39-year-old Baldomir is looking for one final big fight in the United States. Prior to the Funes bout, Golden Boy Promotions promised Baldomir a big fight in the United States - if he comes with a win over Funes. Now Baldomir is expecting his promoter to deliver. He wants one more big showcase, and then win or lose - he will consider retirement.

"It was a tough fight. Funes is a very strong boy, and he had the opportunity of a lifetime to beat a former world champion and he couldn't do it," said Baldomir, who raised his record to 46-13-6 and 14 KOs. "Golden Boy Promotions promised me one more fight in the United States if I won. I'm hoping for another big fight and then I'll think about retirement."
