POCHIRO PROMOTIONS BOXING

FIRST LAS VEGAS PROMOTION....MORE COMING....THIS AT SAMS TOWN EAST LAS VEGAS.
I AM GOING BACK !


THE BAD NEWS FIRST...BECAUSE IT HAPPENED FIRST.....AT KICKOFF 200 PEOPLE WERE STANDING IN LINE TO BUY TICKETS !   I ALWAYS OPERATED ON THE THEORY IF PEOPLE WANT TO GIVE YOU MONEY...TAKE IT AND DO IT AS FAST AS POSSIBLE....HORRIBLE MANAGEMENT OF TICKET SELLING FOR SAMS TOWN AND OR POCHIRO.   THUSLY THE EVENT SECHEDULED FOR 7 GOES AT 732...LATE IS NEVER ACCEPTABLE AND IS ALWAYS PARAMONT TO CLASS AND MANAGEMENT TO THE EFFECT ALL LATE EVENTS ARE DEDUCTED ONE POINT FOR EVERY MINUTE LATE ON THE RATING FROM THIS REPORTER....SO STARTING AT 100 THEY ARE AT 68 D+  BEFORE THEY START AND AFTER THE EVENT THEY HAD LOST NO MORE POINTS AND FINISH AT 68 BARELY PASSING.    THE BOUT SHEETS CONTAINED NO WEIGHTS OR RECORDS.....IN HOUSE TV HAD NO REPLAYS ALTHO THEY PROMISED AN ENTIRE REPLAY IN THE SPORTS BOOK AFTER THE EVENT. A 21 MINUTE INTERMISSION SERVED NO PURPOSE HERE....MAYBE SAMS TOWN HAD MORE STAFF SELLING BEER THAN SELLING TICKETS.
IF YOU WANT TO START AT 7:32......TELL US 7:32 NOT SOMETHING ELSE !


OK


WE ENJOYED THIS ......PRETTY COMPETITIVE BOXING....6 MATCHES....8 MEXICAN AMERICANS AND ONE AUSTRALIAN WHO KNOCKED MY SOX OFF !   WESLEY CAPPER... PERTH, AUSTRALIA....WHEN HE GOT IN THE RING WITH A  SMOCK ON AND A BEANIE WITH A PROPELLER ON HIS HEAD TO START THE FIGHT AND DID A MICHAEL JACKSON BREAK DANCE I WAS IMMEDIATELY IN LOVE WITH HIM...AND AND AND AND....HE COULD REALLY FIGHT AND DID.....157 POUNDS CLASSIC STANDUP BOXER STRAIGHT FORWARD....GREAT MECHANICS...PUNCHED WITH BOTH HANDS.....KNOCKED OUT RASHAWN MCCAIN 2-1  AT 2;13 OF THE SECOND ROUND.  CAPPER 4-0 ON MY LIST OF FIGHTERS I WANT TO SEE MORE OF.....CLEARLY THE BEST IN THE RING ON THIS NIGHT.....THIS THE ONLY KNOCKOUT.


SEMI MAIN WILBERTH LOPEZ A SIX ROUND DECISION OVER LEON SPINKS 3...THIRD GENERTION HERE.


MAIN EVENT.... JESUS GUITIERREZ 11-0 (ONLY FIGHTER WITH A RECORD ON THE CARD) AN EIGHT ROUND UNANIMOUS DECISION OVER MORIS RODRIGUEZ.......LOOKING UP GUITIERREZ ON BOX REC I WAS CURIOUS TO SEE HOW MANY I WOULD FIND.....I ONCE FOUND 132 WITH THE SAME NAME.....ONLY 16 HERE...THATS JUST FOR ME.   MANY MAIDENS ON THE CARD AND LOTS WITH MINIMUM FIGHTS...LOTS OF LOCALS....OVERALL THEY MATCHED UP REALLY WELL !


POCHIRO DID A LOT OF GOOD WORK HERE FOR A REALLY GOOD CROWD IN A NICE VENUE....WORK TO BE DONE AND I AM SURE THEY WILL ATTEND TO THE LATE ISSUE FOR THEIR MAY 31 CARD AT SAMS TOWN....GOOD.....NICE WORKING WITH A WELL MANNERED WILLING TO HELP STAFF AT THE EVENT.


68 D+
