Has this occurred before? Was not a technical decision as far as I'm aware as boxrec had it scheduled for 11!
I know the contender had 5 and 7 round fights and obviously prizefighter has 3 round bouts.
Wasn't he the guy who ran over Bitzy in The Sopranos.
Ritchie Abril!!!!

Their Janice smatened him up tho!!

What about my 1997 fight! i'm dissapointed that the World Boxing Board title isn't being taken seriously

Just looked it up and you are indeed right, at least as far as Boxrec has it. I can't remember any mention of it at the time, though, unlike Paz-Sherry which I remember well (the write-up, not the fight itself).
