On September 18, 2008, Cordoba defeated Luis Pérez via twelve-round unanimous decision in Panama City for the vacant WBA Interim Super Bantamweight Title.[2]
Cordoba was promoted to the full-fledge WBA Super Bantamweight champion on November 21, 2008 after fellow-Panamanian Celestino Caballero won an IBF title to become unified champion.
Cordoba lost his WBA title to Irishman Bernard Dunne on March 21, 2009, being knocked out in the 11th (of 12) round.
Cordoba is now an attorney in Panama. [3]
