Andres Cortes (born January 23, 1997) is an American professional boxer and a contender in the super featherweight division.

Professional career

Cortes vs. Fassinou

On February 17, 2018, Cortes fought 28–8–3 Beninese veteran Fatiou Fassinou on the undercard of Danny García vs. Brandon Ríos event at Mandalay Bay Events Center,[1] Cortes prevailed and won all rounds in all judges' scorecards.[2]

Cortes vs. Servania

On August 14, 2021, Cortes was scheduled against previous world title-challenger Genesis Servania who came off from an 18 months lay-off in an 8-rounder bout on the undercard of the trilogy match between Joshua Franco and Andrew Moloney in Hard Rock Hotel & Casino of Tulsa, Oklahoma,[3] Cortes scored a shocking first-round knockout victory within 3 minutes.[4]

Cortes vs. Bernaldez

On November 5, 2021, Cortes fought Filipino regional-challenger Mark Bernaldez in an 8-rounder match in Virgin Hotels Las Vegas. On the third round of the bout, Cortes hit Bernaldez with heavy right hands prompting the referee to halt the bout.[5]

Cortes vs. del Bosque

On April 22, 2022, Cortes was announced to be sub-lining alongside fellow contenders against Mexican Alexis del Bosque the Shakur Stevenson vs. Óscar Valdez unification match in the prominent MGM Grand Garden Arena, Paradise, Nevada on April 30, 2022.[6] Cortes stopped del Bosque in the sixth round after a three-punch combination.[7]

Cortes vs. Melendez

On January 30, 2023, after several amusing victories, Cortes was matched-up against previous top prospect Luis Melendez for Cortes' first ever 10-rounds bout, scheduled in the prelims of the Emanuel Navarrete vs. Liam Wilson card on February 3, 2023 in Glendale, Arizona,[8][9] Cortes beat Melendez decisively via unanimous decision.[10]

Cortes vs. Chevalier

After winning the WBC-USNBC Silver against Xavier Martinez,[11] Cortes challenged Bryan Chevalier for the WBO Inter-Continental super featherweight crown,[12][13] after bold statements from Cortes, he kept his words true and forced halt the contest in the fourth round to dethrone the Puerto Rican contender.[14]

Cortes vs. Nova

On June 21, 2024, Cortes looks to make his most impressive victory yet as he faces tough world-challenger Puerto Rican Abraham Nova for the vacant WBO-NABO super featherweight titles over 10 rounds,[15] on the day of the weigh-in, Cortes failed to make weight, therefore, the WBO-NABO belt was only for Nova.[16] Cortes beat Nova via unanimous decision with the scores of 97–93 twice and 96–94, despite what the scorecards presented, the decision was deemed controversial amongst viewers.[16]

Cortes vs. Jimenez

Cortes is scheduled to face Salvador Jimenez in a 10-round junior lightweight bout on May 10, 2025 in San Diego, CA.[17][18]
