(SEPT 3) “She’s strong
and tough, but this time I can stop her,” said Jazmín Rivas at
Thursday’s weigh-in for her third meeting with Martha Leticia Arévalo;
and last night at the Centro de Espectáculos Modelo de Obregón, Sonora,
she did just that, ‘wiping the floor´ with the Jaliscan, according to
the only published account, though it wasn’t until the last of the six
scheduled rounds — the twentieth the two have fought in the last
fourteen months — that the defences of a stubborn opponent finally
collapsed.
Whilst hardly the jackpot — that’ll have to wait until 21st October,
when she fights Kwang Ok Kim in South Korea for the WBC world title —
the teenager’s victory, obtained with what was described as ‘explosive
punching’, provoked a windfall of sorts, as spectators expressed their
appreciation of both fighters by throwing coins into the ring — as,
indeed, they had after their first fight in July last year. |
