I recently rediscovered Miguel Cuello in the game and think he's a good addition to any universe. He has great power and a chin that can be reached. That means one thing - lots of action, one way or another!

Both men are in great shape for this 8 rounder. Both men are seeing action for the first time in 1986. And both men are facing their toughest challenge to date. Sears wins the opening round convincingly as he is using his jab to set up wicked rights and hurts Cuello late in the first with a solid right hook. Cuello wins a close second round as he is able to get inside and land some sharp uppercuts. Sears draws a warning from referee Curtis Thrasher. For leaning on the neck of Cuello. Thrasher then deducts a point from Cuello for a low blow that didn't seem to land. What a third round both men just stand and slug and botrh men land some incredible punches. Slightest of edges to Sears. Sears has a huge fourth round as he is able to hurt Cuello with a straight right hand. Sears is landing jab hook combos as the round comes to a close. Cuello has some swelling under the left eye as the round concludes. Cuello battles back in the fifth as Sears is looking fatigued. Cuello hurts Sears late in the round with a right hook. Sears gets on his horse and remains upright for the remainder of the round. Round six may be the round of the year. Both men look spent as they get off their stools. And both men are just letting it all hang out. They take turns rocking eachother and stumbeling across the ring it is amazing neither man goes down as there are some heavy punches being landed. Edge to Cuello as he hurt Sears on a number of occasions here in the sixth. Sears left eye is also showing swelling as the round concludes. Cuello has a big seventh round as Sears looks worse for wear and is hurt again by a Cuello hook. Sears battles back and both mens eyes are a mess. To the eighth and final round. Both men touch gloves and we begin. Cuello lands a huge uppercut and Sears is rocked. A 1:30 in a Sears hook drops Cuello for a 6 count. Cuello struggles to rise to his feet and makes it to the end. Scores should be interesting. 76-75 Sears, 76-76 and 76-75 for the winner by majority decision David Sears. Knockdown late earned Sears the nod. Great fight.

Lora gets the nod after a thrilling 12 round split decision victory over Lupe Pintor to defend his SABC Bantamweight Championship. This is Lora's second victory this year and took a big step up in competition and showed he will be a force in the Bantamweight division. "This fight shows i'm ready to get in there with the best the division has to offer. I hope to be in the top ten by the end of the year and maybe challenge for a title next year" |
