Professional career edit

Victor Lupo won a ten-round majority decision against the former WBC Super Lightweight Champion Junior Witter (37-4-2, 22 KOs) in a welterweight bout on February 19, 2011, at the Hershey Centre, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. Scores were 97-92, 96-94, 95-95. Witter was docked a point for holding in round nine and spent a lot of time on the canvas totally gassed. With the win, Lupo claimed the vacant WBC Silver International title.[2]

On December 17, 2011, he lost a hard fought decision against the welterweight Antonin Décarie (26-1 7KO) who captured the WBC International belt. In a bout that had as many clenches as punches, Decarie was able to prevail with 117-112, 118-110, 118-110 decision. The fight took place Quebec City at the Pepsi Colisée.[3]
