Featherweight fights for Jan 86

Yong-Kyun Park 0-0-0-0 vs Tekle-Ab Suji 2-2-0-0

After a shakey first Park settles in and cruise to amajority decision victory by scores of 39-37 twice and 38-38

Paul Hodkinson 0-0-0-0 vs Mark Waring 0-4-0-0

Talk about spectacular Hodkinson comes out and lands a sizzeling left hook and puts Warring to bed at 1:42 of the first round. What a punch

#14 Robert Castanon 26-1-0-22 vs #29 Alan Richardson 15-1-1-4

The handspeed of Richardson is evident as the round begins and he is landing fast combos, about a minute into the round Richardson is cut and he seems bothered as Castanon takes over the round from that point on.Huge second round for Castanon as he hammers Richardson. Richardson's corner did a good job on the cut as it didn't reopen.Third is pretty uneventful as Castanon wins the round with his work rate. Another big round for Castanon as he gets inside of Richardsons jab and does some good work, for the first time since the first round blood is flowing from the cut but it doesn't seem to be a problem. Much of the same in the fifth Castanon just out working Richardson who is bleeding again by rounds end but again it doesn't seem to be a problem. The sixth and seventh continue as the previous five rounds. Doc examines cut in the seventh and the fight continues. The last round is the same as the previous seven. Once Richardson was cut back in the first this fight completely turned around. The scores 79-73 twice and 80-72 all for the winner Robert Castanon

#10 Bobby Chacon 18-0-0-17 vs #22 Calvin Grove 12-0-2-3

Grove comes out boxing and is peppering Chacon from the outside and with 45 seconds left in the round Grove hurts Chacon with a straight right and finishes the round strong,big opening round for Grove.Chacon returns the favor in round two landing some heavy leather and wins the round big.Round three is fought at a slower pace and Chacon picks up the round with his power shots.Both fighters are trading in the center of the ring when Chacon beats Grove to the punch with a sharp uppercut that deposits Grove on the seat of his pants, he rises at 8 and gets on his bicycle and stays away from Chacon. Grove rebounds well from the knockdown but Chacon edges him again in the fifth.Both men look tired as the sixth round begins. Both men trade heavy shots why Grove is slugging with Chacon I'll never know 2:30 seconds into the round Chacon lands another brutal uppercut and Grove is counted out. With the exception of the opening round Chacon looks good.

#13 Frankie Crawford 20-0-0-2 vs #35 Danny "Little Red" Lopez 21-1-0-21

A pre prime Lopez is looking to rebound from a stoppage on cuts in his last fight and looks to take a big step up in competition against a prime Irish Frankie Crawford. Lopez looks a little soft around the middle could be a long night. The first is evenly fought a classic feeling out round with no decisive winner. Both men mix it up from the outside and this style seems to suit Crawford better as he easily wins the round. Again both men stand at long range and Crawfords hand speed is making a world of difference as he is peppering Lopez another round for Crawford. Lopez has a big fourth as he is able to get inside and bang on Crawford at one point Crawford smiles at Danny as Danny lands a big hook. Another good round for Lopez as he continues to get inside and land some telling blows on Crawford who hasn't been able to keep Lopez off him the last few rounds. Crawford has a good sixth as Lopez is starting to look tired, Crawford is able to counter punch effectively and wins the round. What a round the 7th is as both men look weary they both stand toe to toe and land some huge shots as the bell rounds both men are still trading and the ref has to get between them, to close a round to call. Crawford has a strong round eight as Lopez is looking tired and cannot match Crawfords work rate.In the ninth Lopez just looks tired and slow as he is unable to reach Crawford and Crawford is lighting up Lopez if he had some power Lopez would probably have been out of there by now. Crawford seems to think he has the fight won and pretty much gives the round to Lopez as he did nothing. The score cards read 96-94 Crawford, 95-95 and 96-94 Lopez a draw. I think Lopez got a gift here he better come in fighting form next time or he may not be so lucky.

#11 Juan Domingo Malvarez 19-0-0-16 vs #32 Hilbert Aragon 14-4-0-1

Big first round for Malvarez as he drops Aragon with the first punch he hits him with. Aragon is up at three and dances out of harms way for the remainder of the round. Aragon takes a horrendous beating in the second. Hopefully he doesn't get hurt bad. More of the same in the third, ref was close to stopping it, don't know why he didn't. Aragon takes another terrible beating in the fourth the crowd was screaming for the ref to stop it and before he could Malvarez landed a hook that had Aragon out before he hit the ground. impressive showing against an out classed opponent. Can't wait to see him fight someone of a better caliber
