Professional career
On June 17, 1979, at San Antonio, Ayala and Danny Lopez fought what boxing book The Ring: Boxing in the 20th Century called one of the best fights of that year. Lopez retained the title with a 15th-round knockout, but the fight was marred by the finding afterwards that Ayala had been fighting under the influence of drugs. Nevertheless, this did not affect the fight's result, but left many to speculate about how the fight would have ended had Ayala not been drugged during it. Ayala himself admitted to have been, in his own words, "loaded" on the day of the fight. This bout was Ring Magazine's Fight of the Year for 1979.
On April 19, 1985 Ayala faced Juan Meza for the WBC super bantamweight title losing by TKO in round 6. In his final title attempt Ayala challenged WBA jr featherweight champion Louie Espinoza losing by KO in the ninth round.
