Daniel Rasilla's Boxing Journey
Daniel Rasilla started his professional boxing career on February 4, 2006. In his very first fight, he won against Marques Gil. The judges all agreed that Daniel won, which is called a unanimous decision (UD).
Winning Spanish Titles
On December 15, 2007, Daniel won his first big title. He defeated Hoang Sang Nguyen to become the Spanish lightweight champion. He successfully defended this title once against Karim El Ouazghari in April 2008.
Later that year, in November 2008, Daniel fought Hoang Sang Nguyen again. This time, Daniel lost his lightweight title when the referee stopped the fight in the second round. This is called a technical knockout (TKO).
Challenging for European Titles
In March 2009, Daniel traveled to Ireland for the first time to fight outside Spain. He competed for the European Union lightweight title but lost by unanimous decision to Andrew Murray.
On November 6, 2009, Daniel went to Northern Ireland. He fought for the European light-welterweight title. In this tough match, he was stopped in the ninth round by Paul McCloskey.
Daniel didn't give up! On May 15, 2010, he won another Spanish title. He became the Spanish light-welterweight champion by knocking out Juan Zapata in the fifth round. A knockout (KO) happens when a boxer is hit so hard they can't continue the fight.
He tried for the European Union light-welterweight title again on November 27, 2010. He fought against the champion, Ville Piispanen. The fight ended in a split draw, meaning the judges couldn't agree on a clear winner.
Daniel Rasilla continued to box for several more years, showing great determination in the ring. His last recorded fight was in November 2015.
