Carlos Barreto (July 25, 1976 – October 12, 1999) was a bantamweight boxer from Venezuela, who represented his native country at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia.
He made his professional debut on September 21, 1996. He holds the distinction of being the first ever WBA interim champion when he beat Hector Acero Sánchez in October 1998 to win the interim super-bantamweight title.[1] He would get a chance at becoming full champion in his next, but would get stopped in the eighth round against incumbent champion Néstor Garza.[2] He died on October 12, 1999, three days after a bout against José Luis Valbuena in Caracas, where he collapsed after the fight and was removed on a stretcher. He died due to brain injuries sustained in the match.[3]
