[Crimson]

Saturday, June 6^th, 1992
Everton Park Sports Centre; Liverpool, England
Andy Holligan 20-1 (13) England
vs.
Edwin Rosario 45-5 (36) Puerto Rico
- Odds are EVEN.
- Fighting almost exclusively out of a crablike shell, Holligan produced little offense, but did manage to frustrate the bombing Rosario throughout. Still at the fight’s conclusion most had Rosario the winner by a wide margin.
- Holligan surprised Rosario with an offensive attack in round 9, managing to cause puffiness around the former world title holder’s right eye (4). By this time in the fight Holligan’s own left eye (15) was virtually closed. Holligan employed the same strategy with success in the final round, but still did not do enough to win on the scorecard of television analyst Jim Watt, which had Rosario the winner 97-93.
- Punch stat totals favored Rosario slightly 230-224. The referee was the lone scoring judge in the contest and had it…..96-95….for EDWIN ROSARIO!!
“Chapo” will now challenge Rafael Pineda in July for the IBF title at Puerto Rico’s “Hiram Bithorn” stadium.
