From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alejandro Berrio Hernández (born August 7, 1976 in Cartagena, Bolívar) is a Colombian professional boxer.

Known as "Ñaco", Berrio turned pro in 1997 and won the Vacant IBF Super Middleweight Title with a TKO win over Robert Stieglitz in early 2007 in Rostock, Germany. Berrio sent Stieglitz to the canvas twice with right hands, with the referee stopping the fight with 23 seconds left in the third [1]. It was a rematch between the two fighters, with Stieglitz winning the first bout in late 2005 via TKO.

He lost his title against Lucian Bute at Montreal on 2007-10-19 by TKO on the 11th round.
