Patrick Teixeira (born 5 December 1990) is a Brazilian professional boxer and current WBO Latino super welterweight champion.
Professional career
Teixeira turned professional in 2009, winning his first 25 fights before facing Curtis Stevens on 7 May 2016 (on the undercard of Canelo Álvarez vs. Amir Khan), who stopped him in two rounds to win the vacant World Boxing Council Continental Americas middleweight title. Previously, on 15 March 2014, Teixeira defeated Ignacio Lucero Fraga by a first-round KO to become the Latino super welterweight champion. He signed with Golden Boy Promotions in 2015[1] and was predicted to become Brazil's best chance of winning a boxing world title.[2]
