    Flea Man,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I donl't always trust Box/Rec for records regarding
    Latin American, Mexican and Oriental fighters.

    My Boxeo Guide, is more complete.

    Elionico Mercedes, at age 21, turns professional in January 1978.

    Elionico Mercedes opened his career with 6 straight wins 6-0-0 (1 KO),
    before losing a 10-Round Decision to Joey Olivo 15-0-0 on August 10, 1978 in California.

    Elionico was over-matched in his next '5' bouts, going 1-4-0, dropping him
    to 6-5-0 (1 KO) by January 24, 1980.

    Despite his 'good amateur' career and 'potential' - he looked like no way would he ever be a Flyweight Contender, let alone a Champion.

    Then properly matched, and with a little luck, in his next '14' bouts from January 25, 1980 thru November 6, 1982
    he goes 11-1-2 (4 KO's).

    Included in those wins, a 'big upset' Knock-out (KO 9) over former World Champion Guty Espadas in February 1981 shoots him into the Top 10.

    Also included, a run of '5' impressive wins over Top 10 Flyweights;
    Jose Herrera - Jorge Herrera - Juan Guzman - Antonio Escobar - Juan Diaz

    His only 'blemish', a June 1981 Disqualification-Loss (L Disq. 2) to 'highly regarded' Candido Tellez.

    Those wins move him to 17-6-2 (5 KO's) and moves him to the #3 WBC Flyweight, and in-line for World Title shot.

    On November 6, 1982 - 25 year-old 'Nico' Mercedes upsets WBC Flyweight Champion *Freddie Castillo by 15-Round Decision
    at The Olympic in Los Angeles.

    In March 1983, in his 'first defense of the title' he travels to Wembley Stadium in London, and gets blown-out by Charlie Magri (L KO 7), and loses the WBC Championship.

    'Two' decision wins in 1983 (after the Charlie Magri Knock-out loss) up his record back to 20-7-2 (5 KO's).

    Included, was an impressive December 1983 10-Round Decision over the 'talented' Alonzo Gonzalez.

    When he fought German 'GT' Torres in March 1984, his record was 20-7-2 (5 KO's), and he was the #4 Flyweight.
