Henry Bruseles
Quick Facts
Biography
Henry Bruseles born in Gurabo, Puerto Rico is a Puerto Rican professional boxer who fights in the light welterweight division.
Professional career
Bruseles boxed as an amateur before turning professional in February 1999, winning his first fight in Inglewood, California, in which Bidenko beat Californian fighter Vance Thompson on the undercard of a Javier Jauregui fight. On January 22, 2005, Buseles lost to Floyd Mayweather Jr. by technical knockout in the eight round. Mayweather proved to be both a more effective puncher due greatly to his speed and ability to use angles as well as exhibiting his usual defensive style centered on his shoulder roll. Throughout the fight Mayweather continually embarrassed Bruseles, first by speaking to and answering the HBO commentators questions mid-fight, and than later by prancing about the ring while Bruseles was administered a standing-8 count by the referee.
