Franco Udella (born 25 February 1947 in Cagliari) is an Italian former world boxing champion.
1968 (as a Light flyweight)
1972 (as a flyweight)
Udella turned pro in 1972 and won the newly created WBC light flyweight title in 1975 with a disqualification win over Valentin Martinez in the 12th round. Udella was then stripped of the title in August 1975, for failing to defend against Paraguayan Rafael Lovera, who had never fought a professional fight. The following year he challenged WBC light flyweight world champion Luis Estaba, but lost by KO in the 3rd round. He never challenged for a major title again. He retired in 1979 after a loss to Charlie Magri for the EBU (European) flyweight title.
