Willie Pastrano - Masterful Left Hand (haNZAgod)

Highlights of the highly skilled Light-Heavyweight world champion.

Willie Pastrano - Was an American former professional boxer who competed from 1951 to 1965. He held the undisputed WBA, WBC, and The Ring Light Heavyweight titles between 1963 and 1965. Pastrano began his career at the age of 16. He fought many heavyweights and outpointed heavyweight contenders Rex Layne, Brian London, and Tom McNeeley. Managed by the legendary Angelo Dundee, Pastrano was a smooth, quick boxer with a great left hand. He was a stablemate of Cassius Clay and often sparred with the future champion early in Clay's career. Pastrano won the world Light Heavyweight championship when he outpointed the great Harold Johnson on a close 15-round decision. He successfully defended his crown by stopping Gregorio Peralta of Argentina on a TKO, and by coming back from a certain defeat on points to KO English challenger Terry Downes in 11 rounds in Manchester, England. He retired with a professional record of 62-13-8.
