Comeback

Hurtado came back on April 3, 2009 to beat two-time world title challenger Arturo Morua by Split-Decision to win the vacant WBO Latino Welterweight title, Hurtado was in control until he was caught off balance and knocked down in the 1st round. Hurtado was cut over his right eyebrow and Morua on top of his forehead in the 5th round due to a clash of heads after that Moura had control (due to the profuse bleeding getting into Hurtado's eye) until the 6th round when Hurtado took back control and kept it until the 12th round when Moura would rally to take the round. The scores were 114-113 and 114-113 for Hurtado and 113-114 for Moura.
