The
23-year-old Italian won the title in impressive
and devastating fashion on April 11 in Rome when
he came in as the underdog and scored a
conclusive third round knockout over compatriot
Patrizio Santini.
Santini
(13-2),
fighting in his home-town, was highly favoured
going in, but Barile never the less appeared in
control early on.
Not known as a
puncher, the way he finished the fight was very
unexpected, as he completely flattened Santini
with one, perfect punch.
