Mike Hunter Las Vegas 201+Won by Retirement had too much speed and movement for the Canadian gives him a stading 8 in the 3rd REF calls in MD to check his eye which is closed ( the Canadian doctor says he could continue imagine that) Corner throws in towel before the ref can say box
Overall we didnt do too bad not our best team but they all boxed well .

Hey - thanks for the results and comments! Shawn Estrada is known as the DQ King. Too bad our ref didn't do that in this bout.

Excellent win for Mike Hunter. Akeema has a tendency to run out of gas. Too bad the ref couldn't make his own decision to retire. Sheesh! Hunter is an up-and-comer, just breaking into the open division ranks in the U.S. He's still green but I think he'll mature into an all-around boxer as he gets more experience.

Do you know if Trupish is going to stick around until 2008?
