Horta follows in the proud tradition of Cuban boxers and is the only boxer to win World Titles in three different weight catagories (Bantamweight, 1978; Featherweight, 1982; and Lightweight, 1986). However, he was was upset by East Germany's Rudi Fink in Moscow and had to settle for the silver medal as a Featherweight. Unfortunately, even though he would have been favored to win the gold medal as a Lightweight, due to the Soviet boycott, he did not compete in the 1984, Los angeles Olympic Games.

Horta was born on March 10, 1957, in Camaguey, Cuba.
