			== Notes ==
			* Moncivais, who had won two national titles as an amateur, was ahead on two judges' scorecards and even on the third when O'Bannon landed his combination.[http://www.usatoday.com/sports/boxing/2009-07-29-1039474489_x.htm]

	== Bout Summary ==		== Bout Summary ==

	In what would easily be called the 2009 gulf coast boxing fight of the year, Mobile, Alabama heavyweight [[Bobby O'Bannon]] overcame a rough start to viciously knockout former national silver gloves champions Francisco “Poncho” Moncivais. Round one saw both fighters hit the deck, but O’Bannon would end up being saved by the bell. Round 2 was all Moncivais as O’Bannon didn’t seem to have his legs back. Poncho came out slugging in round 3, but would fade badly towards the end of the round; O’Bannon would land some thudding blows to end the round. The final round saw Moncivais’ conditioning fail him badly. With nothing left in the tank of Poncho, O’Bannon pressed him to the ropes and unleashed a right hand and a left hook that knocked Moncivais out on his feet. Poncho slowly fell to the ground. He would then be attended by the medics at ringside; he would eventually be stretchered out of the ring and sent to the hospital. Moncivais died the following day from injuries sustained in the bout.

			* "I'll come right out and tell you, the last couple days have probably been the hardest days I've ever had to live through in my life. I went to athletic competition with somebody, and because of the way I competed, he died. I know there's no way anything I could have done could have changed the way it came to be. But I can't stop thinking: In essence what happened was, he's fine, then he fights me, and then he dies. That's hard to live with. I've had nightmares every night. I dream I'm back in the ring, and I'm trying to get him to kill me, instead of me killing him. I see him whenever I close my eyes."[http://www.usatoday.com/sports/boxing/2009-07-29-1039474489_x.htm] - [[Bobby O'Bannon]]
