Background

Born in Jesús del Monte, Guanajuato, Mexico, Ornelas is the younger brother of Super Middleweight contender Librado Andrade.[2][3]

Career

Ornelas began his professional career on 16 October 1999, beating previously unbeaten Rigoberto Placencia on points over four rounds at the Marriott Hotel, Irvine, California, United States.[4]

Ornelas vs. Hopkins

On December 2, 2009, Ornelas fought Bernard Hopkins through 12-rounds but lost a unanimous decision. The bout took place in the light heavyweight division and Ornelas had never fought that high up in weight before.[5]

First title shot
