Eddie Gazo (born 1950-09-12 in San Lorenzo, Nicaragua) is a former professional boxer in the super welterweight (154 lb) division.
Pro career
Gazo turned pro in 1971, and captured the WBA light middleweight title in 1977 with a decision win over Miguel Angel Castellini. That year he was named The Ring magazine Progress of the Year fighter[citation needed]. He defended the belt three times before losing it to Masashi Kudo the following year. He retired in 1984 following a string of losses that concluded with a defeat to Julian Jackson.
