Adriano Castro could be a serious prospect to watch after adding another highlight to his early career reel – just 10 days after his previous fight.
The 19-year-old from Peru got a spectacular first-round submission win on Wednesday at Inka 55 in Lima. Castro (5-0) put Felipe Molina (5-2) to sleep with a bulldog choke just over three minutes into the opening round of the bantamweight fight, marking his second victory by choke in less than two weeks.
Castro defeated Kenyer Carranza on March 22 under the Perrera Fight banner in a featherweight bout, then quickly turned around down a weight class and made short work of Molina.
Check out the replay of the finish below (via X):
After making his professional debut in June, Castro has already picked up five victories, all by stoppage. He has yet to see a third round, with only one of his fights making it past the 3:01 mark of Round 1.
