	"Long Beach's Mando Ramos again is lightweight champion of the world. He scored a split decision win in 15 rounds over Spain's Pedro Carrasco Friday night in the L.A. Sports Arena. The fight was a bristling affair that could have been scored either way, but the decision was a happy one for the crowd of 15,165 which was overwhelmingly pro-Ramos. As expected, Carrasco opened up a big lead on points as his pre-fight theory was that he would have to outpoint Ramos since he felt he couldn't knock him out. But the durable Ramos came along strong in the late rounds to pull out the verdict, thus silencing talk he had drained himself earlier in the day by sacfricing himself to the sweatbox to shed two pounds after the initial weigh-in. The 13th round was probably Mando's best of the evening. he almost caved in Carrasco's face with a crushing left hook, then he followed with a right cross that spun Pedro completely around. Before Pedro could regain his senses, Ramos exploded another right that forced Carrasco to lose his balance. The defeat was only the 2nd in 125 matches for Carrasco, who gained some balm by taking home $60,000. Ramos' purse was $53,000." -Long Beach Independent-Press Telegram		"Long Beach's Mando Ramos again is lightweight champion of the world.
