After defecting from the Cuban National Team in Tijuana in March of last year, 2016 Cuban Olympic Bronze Medalist Joahnys Argilagos finally had his pro debut tonight. He fought in a small club show about 25 miles west of Houston, TX against 20-bout veteran Josue Morales but the fight card is so far under the radar that I cant find out how the fight turned out. Does anyone know how Argilagos-Morales turned out? Please give a summary of the fight.

The double world champion in the mini fly weight Joahnys Argilagos started on the right foot debuting with a victory in professional boxing and now wants to win the support of the Miami public.
Argilagos, 22, defeated Mexican-American boxer Josue Morales, his first rival in professionalism, on Friday and now sets his sights on his next bout in Miami.
"Despite his superiority, [the Agramontino] did not get a resounding victory on the judges' ballots, since two saw him win 59-55, 58-56 and a third gave a 57-57 tie," as one publication warns. of El Nuevo Herald .
The Cuban, who has had to fight many battles to get into a ring in the United States, is very clear that you have to climb little by little and especially win the fights with fierceness to win the favor of the public.
Already many in the city of Miami are waiting for him, his second professional fight will take place on May 24 at the Miccosukee Indian Gaming Resort, in that city.
And in this respect the native of Camagüey expressed in an interview "I want to impress Miami and I know that many have followed my evolution in these months".
For that poster in Miami Joannys will compete with Juan Centeno, (3-2-1 KO) of Nicaragua, who is not a hard nut to crack, but one more step in the purpose that has been set The Little Giant: "I want to lift the image, change the image that exists of Cuban boxing . "Comment

Looks like he already won his 2nd fight just a few days ago.
It was a split decision W. I didn't watch that fight yet, but seems like maybe a judge mighta got the corners wrong or something cuz he won 5-1 on 2 cards & one judge had it 5-1 the other way. Idk maybe a lot of close rounds idk, but weird scoring.
Oh & here's the fights.
They got homeboy fighting for some belt in a 6 round fight lol. He even got a artist walking him into the ring at a club show which is seems a bit much, but f#ck it lets do it.
