Born on January 13, 1954, Limón is best known for his four-bout rivalry with Bobby Chacon. Their first fight took place on December 7, 1975, in Mexicali, Mexico, Limón defeating a heavily favoured Chacon in a ten-round decision. Negotiations took place in 1977-78 to pit Limón against the WBA's world junior lightweight champion, Samuel Serrano. However, the fight never took place. Limón challenged WBC world junior lightweight champion Alexis Argüello in February 1979, suffering an 11th-round knockout. Following this he and Chacon met for the second time, an accidental head-butt resulting in a seven-round no contest. The pair met for a third time on March 21, 1980, in Los Angeles, Chacon earning a very controversial{{according to whom|date=August 2016}} 10-round decision. In spite of this Limón found himself fighting later that year for the world title Arguello had vacated. Limón knocked out Venezuela's Idelphonso Bethelmy in the 15th at Los Angeles to become the WBC world junior lightweight champion. Limon made his first defense against England-based Ugandan Cornelius Boza Edwards, losing a 15-round decision. {{ external media| align = center | audio1 = You may watch {{YouTube|NRs50e7xjwo|Rafael "Bazooka Limón" fight Hector "Macho" Camacho}} | audio2 = }} In 1982, Rolando Navarrete was the WBC world junior lightweight champion, having dethroned Boza-Edwards in a 5-round KO. Limón knocked Navarrete out in round 12 to become a two-time world champion. After defending his title successfully against Chung Il Choi, Limón met Chacon for a fourth bout. Held on December 11, 1982 in Sacramento. It was their first meeting with a world championship at stake. Limón dropped Chacón in rounds 3 & 10, but Chacon turned the tables with only a few seconds left in round 15 and knocked Limón down. Limón climbed the ropes to get to his feet to finish the fight, yet lost on the judges' cards in a split decision. The fight won various Fight of the Year awards for 1982.{{citation needed|date=August 2016}} In 1983, Chacón refused to defend his world title against Héctor 'Macho' Camacho, so Limón traveled to Puerto Rico to meet Camacho. He was no match for Camacho, who defeated him in 5 rounds. Limón went on boxing until 1992, losing to a number of future world champions and prominent boxers, including Julio César Chávez and Roger Mayweather, but never again challenged for a world title. His record is 52-23-2 (39 KOs). {{s-start}}{{Succession box| before = Alexis Argüello Vacates | title = WBC Super Featherweight boxing champion | after = Cornelius Boza Edwards | years = 11 Dec 1980– 8 Mar 1981 }}{{Succession box | before = Rolando Navarrete | title = WBC Junior Lightweight boxing champion | after = Bobby Chacon | years = 29 May 1982– 11 Dec 1982 }}{{s-end}} See also

Ahí se me me enseñó a boxear. En ese tiempo el deporte sólo se daba los jueves; ahora hacen deporte a diario. Yo entré en 1973. El Mayor Aceves me ayudó a dar mis primeros golpes. Me puso a boxear con otro soldado, le gané fácilmente y me dijo 'usted tiene cualidades'. Mi primer manager profesional fue Alfredo Cruz Chávez, 'Kid Rapidez', en los Baños Avenida.}} External links
