Mario Rodríguez (born 6 October 1988) is a Mexican former professional boxer who has held the IBF mini flyweight title from September 2012 until March 2013. He is also the first world boxing champion from the city of Guasave.[1]

Professional career

[edit]

In July 2011, Rodríguez won a ten round unanimous decision over undefeated Mexican, Manuel Jiménez to win the interim NABF Strawweight Championship.[2]

IBF Strawweight Championship

[edit]

On 1 September 2012 Rodríguez upset the undefeated Nkosinathi Joyi to capture the IBF strawweight title. This bout was held at the Auditorio Benito Juárez, in Guadalajara, Mexico.[3]

Rodríguez retired in June 2019 following the shooting death of his trainer and became a trainer himself.[4] After his boxing gym was shut down during the COVID-19 pandemic, he began working as a barber.[4]
