Semi-Finals:

Mario D'Agata vs Packey O'Gatty - D'Agata did everything right in this fight but one thing. He built up a solid lead with controlled agression and was well on his way to a decision (he was up 10-3 on both my card and that of Don Koss. The judges had it 10-4, 10-4, 9-5) when he blatantly began hitting and holding. He was given his 7th foul and was disqualified for the blatant foul handing O'Gatty a prayer of a win!

Casper Leon vs Franco Zurlo - A back and forth fight that saw these warriors accidentally clash heads in the 7th resulted in a cut over the right eye of Leon. In the 12th the cut had become so bad that the fight was stopped and sent to the scorecards. The judges had it 6-4, 7-2, 7-3 for Zurlo! I had it 6-4 for Zurlo, so the decision was just even though I felt it was far closer than 2 of the judges scored it.

Final:

Franco Zurlo vs Packey O'Gatty - Zurlo was in top form throughout the fight moving, then sticking then moving again using his jab to nearly close the left eye of O'Gatty who simply was too slow to cut the ring off effectively. When he did get in close Zurlo punished him with an wicked cross and strong hooks to dominate the fight. The judges scored the bout 10-4, 11-4, 9-5 for Zurlo who will advance to the World Tournament.
