Cardona takes the title in the best win of his career, bloodying the warrior Hong into submission.
Cardona, perhaps lesser known than his brother Prudencio (Olympian and one time lineal flyweight champion) due to a certain knockout that has done the rounds on youtube in recent years, would go on to make five defences of the WBA super bantamweight title.
Hong, a former WBA champion at 118lbs, was making the 2nd defence of the 122lb title he took from Hector Carrasquilla in a classic available on youtube that if anyone reading this hasn't seen, I would recommend checking out in your next spare 10 minutes.
