Laguna, nicknamed "El Tigre Colonense," was a WBC champion in 1965 and later recovered the belt in 1970, but he was barred from winning the WBC championship prior to losing the WBA Championship to Ken Buchanan.

In 1967, Laguna lost 15 round decisions in two other attempts to regain his lightweight title, against Carlos Ortiz, and in 1971 against Ken Buchanan. After the 1971 defeat to Buchanan, he resigned.

In 2001, Laguna was inducted into the International boxing hall of fame.
