Biography
Jaro first made a living in making shoes with his father. At 12 years of age, he took up boxing where he had 59 amateur fights.[1]
He began boxing professionally on September 1, 2001.
In his first world title attempt, Jaro challenged Edgar Sosa for the WBC 108-pound title on September 27, 2008. Despite scoring a knockdown in the 9th round, he ended up losing a unanimous decision.
Jaro got another shot at a world championship where he took on Giovanni Segura for the WBA light flyweight title on November 21, 2009. He was, however, subdued in the opening round.
After moving up in weight a number of bouts earlier, Jaro defeated Pongsaklek Wonjongkam of Thailand by knockout in the sixth of twelve rounds for the WBC, The Ring and Lineal Flyweight World titles on March 2, 2012 in Chonburi, Thailand.[2] However, he would lose the titles to Toshiyuki Igarashi in his first title defense on July 16, 2012.[3]
