Professional career

On July 14, 2007, Kermit Cintrón was dominant in his first *le defense, knocking down the Argentine Matthysse three times on his way to a knockout victory twenty-nine seconds into the second round. Prior to this match, Matthysse had never been knocked down by any opponent, although he had suffered a tenth-round technical knockout loss in May 2006 at the hands of Paul Williams (the Cintrón-Matthysse bout was the main undercard fight of a WBO *le bout between challenger Williams and in*bent Antonio Margarito).
