Kurt Walker’s scheduled bout against Rudy Garcia on ProBox TV has been canceled after Garcia failed his medical examination.

Boeing Center at Tech Port in San Antonio, Texas - Mirco Cuello, a 2020 Argentine Olympian with a fun, aggressive style, pounded out a tough, 10-round unanimous decision win against the willing Rudy Garcia in their featherweight bout, handing Garcia his first loss. Cuello won by three scores of 99-90, 99-90 and 99-90 to improve to 13-0 with 11 KOs as Garcia dropped to 13-1-1 with 2 KOs.

Mirco Cuello went the ten-round distance for just the second time in his latest win. The unbeaten Argentinean knockout artist was credited with a fifth-round knockdown but had to settle for a lopsided points win over Rudy Garcia in their battle of unbeaten featherweights. Cuello won by scores of 99-90 on all three cards in their Showtime-aired ShoBox co-feature Friday from Boeing Center at Tech Port in San Antonio, Texas.
