    spark doesnt punch very hard. technique looks ok, maybe hes punching with a soft hand. or maybe the other dude is just rock headed.

    @MidniteProwler this Mexican kid must have some New South Welshman in him. What a chin.

    Round 1 Spark 10-9
    Round 2 Valenzuela 10-9
    Round 3 Spark 10-9
    Round 4 Spark 10-9
    Round 5 Spark 10-9
    Round 6 Valenzuela 10-8
    Round 7 Spark 10-9
    Round 8 Spark 10-9

    Spark taking his time, placing his shots, and they're sick ones. Gollaz looking dead on his feet. Burst of energy from Gollaz. park unleashes a series of rights. FLurry of uppercuts and rights late from Spark. Brutal right from Spark.

    What a fight this is. Gollaz is tough and game as hell but so is Spark. Spark had that bad round but he's clearly winning for me. Most guys at this weight would've been KO'd by now if they had eaten this many clean shots from Spark.

    Agreed and I think Toowoomba in Queensland is the only part of the state with good chins like Spark and Katsidis

    2. 10-9 Gollaz - close.
    3. 10-9 Stevie Sparkola - clear. Heavy shots landed.
    4. 10-9 Gollaz - closer round. Both landed some decent punches. We are in Mexico here.
    5. 10-9 Stevie Sparkola - heavy punches landed. Gollaz taking them but Stevie keeps giving.
    6. 10-8 Gollaz - Body shot hurts & drops Spark.
    7. 10-9 Stevie Sparkola - dominant round for Sparkola. The Mexican's toughness is keeping him in it & could win it for him.

    9. 10-9 Stevie Sparkola - Closer round, but Stevie landed the cleaner punches & he landed more of them.
