Burke’s blog: Han victorious
Blog by Louie Burke
Well, it was a war and, by far, the best fight of the night.
King, a southpaw, didn’t waste any time trying to land his straight left. Just missing his target, King indicated that it was his power shot. Abie, on the other hand, found a home for his left hook which hurt King multiple times throughout the fight.
In the fourth, King caught Abie with straight left, wobbling him, but as he went for the finish, Abie impressively bobbed, weaved and held on, until he re-gained his whereabouts, enabling him to survive the round.
In the fifth, both fighters clashed heads, causing a stream of blood, from a cut above Abie’s hairline. In between rounds, the bleeding was stopped and never played a factor in the fight.
For the rest of the fight, Abie stayed busier and outhustled King.
I grew a little grayer tonight but was pleased with the victory.
The scores were 60-54 and 58-54 twice.
