By Cliff Rold - The son of a former featherweight titlist, 22-year old bantamweight Alejandro Gonzalez Jr. (25-3-2, 15 KO) of Tijuana, Mexico, showed real promise in July, dropping IBF 122 lb. titlist Carl Frampton twice in round one before losing a competitive decision. On the strength of that defeat, Gonzalez entered the ring Tuesday night with the spotlight there for the taking. Again he scored a knockdown in the first round. Again, Gonzalez left in defeat. 28-year old Karim Guerfi (23-3, 6 KO) of Manosque, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, France, rose from a nasty knockdown in the first to win a unanimous decision over Gonzalez on Tuesday night at the Music Hall in Austin, Texas. It was Guerfi’s third straight win and he celebrated full throated after a smart, gutsy showing that turned early turmoil into a clinic down the stretch.
