FRANKIE "The Shark" TOLEDO

Former IBF Featherweight Champion of the World

Frankie lost his IBF Title in a controversial decision with Manuel Mendina. After a head-butt from Mendina in the 3rd round, the referee let the fight continue. It was obvious that more damage had been done than just a cut on his forehead. Frankie was no longer the intelligent, quick, stick and move fighter that he was in the first 2 rounds. The fight ended before the 6th round could get started when the referee stopped the fight on advice from the doctor because Frankie could not see out of his right eye. Capital Promotions is working with the IBF to determine if a mandatory rematch should be required of Mendina.
