raul...are you THE raul? 1970-05-16 : Lionel Rose lost to Raul Cruz by KO in round 4 of 10 Location: Forum, Inglewood, California, USA Referee: John Thomas "Rose appeared to have things well in control for the first three rounds. He used his left jab to outbox Cruz in the 1st round and had Raul off stride during most of the 2nd. With seconds remaining in the round a wicked left hook dropped Cruz, but although Cruz seemed rubber-legged, the bell rang before Rose was able to follow up. Rose kept up his jabbing, hooking attack in the 3rd and again stung Cruz. Cruz ripped home a solid left-right to the body early in the 4th, driving Rose against the ropes. Raul swarmed in on him and sent him to the deck with a left-right to the head. Lionel stumbled up at '8', but soon hit the deck again from a right to the body. A solid left-right felled him again and was counted out at 2:57 of the round." -Boxing Illustrated, August 1970 issue Retrieved from "http://www.boxrec.com/media/index.php/Raul_Cruz_vs._Lionel_Rose"
