Amos Lincoln (level 5) (5-2 4) vs. Johnny Risko (level 5) (4-1-1) - Lincoln had won a UD over Fres Oquendo. Risko had drawn with George Chaplin, then narrowly decisioned him. Risko, whose conditioning was always risky, came in in better tone than Amos, and danced his way to an 8-4 1^st. The Cleveland Rubber Man was tagged with some hooks and a solid cranium-crusher, but he kept on the offensive, his jabs & combinations accumulating enough points to possibly take the 2nd round, 12-11. Lincoln was cut above the right eye

, and Johnny peppered it
after that.

The Big Train staggered Risko with a thunderous hook early in the 3^rd, and Johnny covered up, hurt. Lincoln couldn’t put him down, but scored enough points for an 11-4 round. The first minute of the 4^th was Lincoln throwing and Risko dodging. The two men bumped heads, and suddenly Amos was cut right on the left eyebrow. This was a bad cut

, causing a temporary stoppage, and Risko took advantage of the blood running down to punch out a 9-3 round!

Lincoln’s cut above his right eye was reopened early in the 5^th. He landed a smashing hook, but Johnny was getting his lighter blows in. Amos fought a smart 3^rd minute, pulling away to an 11-6 round. It was a close match at the midway point.

Both men clinched in a th round Amos may have won, 6-4, but the crowd was booing. Amos opened the 7^th with some nice hooks, jumping to a 5-0 lead. Risko came back with a series of uppercuts, and one reopened Lincoln’s cut on the left eye, and the fight was halted

. Allowed to continue, Johnny was relentless, and Amos couldn’t block his jabs and uppercuts. The cut worsened as the round was nearing an end, and the fight was again halted. This time, the damage was too much

. Risko had been well ahead, 12-5, but the round would go to the scorecards as of the previous round.

Johnny had outlanded Amos, 149-118, at a 73% proficiency rate, but Amos had landed the power shots. I had it 58-57 for Amos. The judges scored the fight 58-56, 57-57 & 58-56, a majority decision for…Amos Lincoln! The two men saluted each other, both unhappy at how the fight ended, and Amos assured Johnny he’d be getting a rematch, as he didn’t want to win this way. A second level 5 man has now advanced to the Sweet 16! The Big Train is still chugging.
