“Eric Robles suffered a painful defeat in the fifth round, missing a counter hook”, — write: sport.ua
Robles tried from the first seconds to impose an aggressive fight on his opponent at close range, but his sweeping blows did not bring any dividends.
Cardenas easily moved out of the line of fire thanks to his delicate footwork and successfully failed the champion in counterattacks. In the third round, the Mexican missed a hard blow to the jaw and ended up on the canvas, but managed to continue the fight. As it turned out, not for long.
Cardenas caught the opponent in the fifth round with a counter hook, sending him to a brutal knockout. A bright and very good victory from Cardens, who claimed the title of world champion in May 2025, but lost to Naoi Inoue from Japan.
