Chungmu Gymnasium; Chungmu, Korea
Yung-Kyun Park 22-3-2 (13) Korea WBA
vs.
Louie Espinoza 46-5-3 (45) Arizona
- The betting odds were EVEN on this fight.
- The first 5 rounds were a slam bam affair, with Espinoza maybe having a few more moments of success. The eyes of each fighter had begun to swell Park was at (7) and also had begun to carry his lands low due to the debilitating body attack Espinoza was delivering. Espinoza’s left eye was a bit puffy (2). Ringside Expert Jason Wood had it EVEN 48-48.
- Despite the pro-Park crowd not liking it, the referee deducted 1 point from Park in round 6 for a low blow. Park seemed to come a bit unglued after the point deduction and was starting to get hit by punches he’d earlier managed to avoid.
- Park came back with a good round 8, when he stunned Espinoza and was able to do the same in round 9. After 9 completed rounds the left eye of both fighters was ½ closed, Espinoza (13) and Park (11).
- Park was badly stunned in round 10 and forced to hold on.
- It was Espinoza’s turn in round 11 to get rocked and then stunned.
- Ringside Expert Jason Wood had it for Espinoza 115-113.
- All 3 official judges had it 115-113 for the ….NEW WBA title holder LOUIE ESPINOZA
