Professional career

edit

After getting his bachelors from Marquette University, Feliciano made his professional debut on February 17, 2017, scoring a six-round unanimous decision (UD) victory over Angel Rodriguez at the Belasco Theater in Los Angeles, California.[2]

After compiling a record of 12–0 (8 KOs) he faced Genaro Gamez for the vacant WBC-NABF super lightweight title on August 22, 2019, at the Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in Indio, California. Feliciano captured his first professional title via UD in a mostly one-sided fight, with one judge scoring the bout 99–91 and the other two scoring it 98–92.[3] He returned to the Fantasy Springs Resort Casino on December 13 to successfully defend his title against Herbert Acevedo. In a fight which saw Acevedo knocked down heavily in the third round, Feliciano won by UD over ten rounds with the judges' scorecards reading 100–89, 99–90, and 97–92.[4]
