HOW BLESSED WE ARE TO HAVE CLUB CARD BOXING IN LAS VEGAS...
WE DO...WE DID....SATURDAY AT SAMS TOWN....WE WILL HAVE MORE.
INTERESTING THAT THE OPENING BOUT BETWEEN KEITH HUNTER AND SAMUEL GARCIA WHO HAD TWO FIGHTS BETWEEN THEM IN THIER CAREERS PRODUCED MORE ACTION THAN YOU WILL HAVE IN THE 80 BILLION DOLLAR MAYWEATHER-PACQUAIO MATCH.....IT WAS REFRESHING.... TWO YOUNG 147 POUNDERS THAT WANTED TO FIGHT AND DID...RIGHT AT EACH OTHER...HUNTER GOT A THRID ROUND KO.
NICE VENUE AT SAMS TOWN.....GREAT TIME ....MET AND REVIEWED HISTORY WITH SOME OF THE JUDGES AND REFEREES...THE NEVADA ATHLETIC COMMISSION ALWAYS ON TOP OF EVERYTHING......POCHIRO CAUGHT A BAD BREAK IN THE FIRST FIGHT WITH ONE BOXER HAVING TO BE MOVED TO THE HOSPITAL AND THUSLY NO AMBULANCE ON DUTY....BY LAW AND RULE ONE MUST BE IN ATTENDANCE SO WE WAITED FOR A REPLACEMENT...SAFETY ISSUE. NAC HAD 3 DOCTORS ON DUTY!
SIX BOUTS...... DAMIEN VASQUEZ DEFEATED EDWIN REYES IN A LOPSIDED 79-73 78-74 AND 79-73 SCORECARD....THIS WAS A BOUT THAT WAS UNEVEN AND OFFERED THE SENARIO FOR REYES TEAM TO THROW IN THE TOWEL....THEY DIDN'T....THE BOUT ALSO OFFERED THE OPPORTUNITY FOR REFEREE ROBERT BYRD TO DISTINGUISH THE GREY AREA BETWEEN..."A FIGHTER FIGHTING BACK" AND "SHOULD THE BOUT BE STOPPED FOR SAFETY AND COMPETITVE VALUE"....BYRD CHOSE NOT TO STOP IT!
BIG DEAL ON THE MAIN EVENT....GOT TO LOVE A GUY WHO COMES INTO THE RING WITH A BEANIE ON HIS HEAD (AND PROPELLER)....WES CAPPER 9-1 DID....HIS OPPONENT TONY HIRSCH 18-6-2....HAD NO BEANIE... AND HIRSCH TOOK A 97-93 96-94 95-95 MAJORITY DECISION IN A WONDERFUL CLASSIC MATCH OF STANDUP BOXERS...THEY HAD SIMILAR STYLES...160 POUNDERS...BOTH IN GREAT SHAPE AND BOTH REALLY FOCUSED ON THEIR MISSION. LVEN HAD IT 97-93 HIRSCH.
ALMOST NO RAP MUSIC ON THIS NIGHT ...THANKS TO POCHIRO FOR THIS....STAY TUNED HERE FOR FUTURE CARDS FROM POCHIRO BOXING.
