Victor Galindez vs Jorge Ahumada V

One more bump

 

Look how massive Galindez's upper body is compared to his legs. The dude was built like a fire plug.

 

Both Victor Galindez and Jorge Ahumada,,,,,,,,

'Tough Argentinian Bulls'

Jorge Victor 'Aconcagua' Ahumuda or better known as 'Mountain' Ahumuda.

a) A solidly built 6' 0" 'brick wall'. A tough as nails fighter, who was 'in-your-face' for the whole fight.
b) A good boxer, and a sharp hitter.
c) Had a paralyzing left hook to the body, and was a very good counter-puncher.
d) Not particularly fast, but could throw double left-hooks quickly.
e) Liked to stay in close to utilize his strength, and to unload his heavy body punches.
f) Best power-punch, the left hook.
g) Defensively was fair, and could be hit.

June 17, 1974

Correct,

Unknown, Argentinian -Jorge Victor Ahumada (fighting out of New York City) out-muscles
World Champion Bob Foster, in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

This guy was supposed to be a 'safe opponent' for Champion Bob Foster.

Every boxing writer in attendance had Jorge Ahumada winning by '3-points'.

Scorecards;
Judge;........144-144....EVEN
Judge.........148-143....Bob Foster
Referee;.....145-142....Jorge Ahumada


Jorge Ahumada had '1-point' deducted in Round 10, for a low-blow he administered on Bob Foster.

It was later called 'a retirement gift'.

 

All great stuff Vic!!

The bout could have been scored a Draw 15.

I watched the Ahumada-Galindez footage over the weekend. I felt Ahumada got the better of the 7 or 8 rounds available for viewing. He clearly got the better of Foster. This guy is growing on me quickly. I'll be watching Conteh-Ahumada asap.
