Sports Show Period"
Jr. Middleweight Bout (10 Rds)
Vernon Forrest (37-2,
28 KOs) wins by knockout at 1:58 of the 10th round over Elco Garcia (18-4, 8 KOs)
-
Controversy - after an
exchange with a little over a minute left in the 10th round, Forrest went
down but it
was because he was off balance
after he threw a punch - Garcia almost went down himself stepping
backwards to avoid it - it
looked like the ref called Forrest stumble a knockdown - Garcia then went
to a
corner and had his arms at his
side and started to walk to a neutral corner when the ref waved off the
knockdown - at this point,
Forrest had already gotten up and started to walk toward Garcia who was
walking
over to the neutral corner
with his arms at his side and Forrest landed two shots to Garcia's head
and Garcia
went down and the ref stopped
the bout. Crowd booed the outcome.
