Cintron returned to his winning ways, scoring a very impressive 10th round TKO
over David Estrada (18-3, 0 KOs) this Wednesday night at the beautiful and
spacious Palm Beach Convention
Center in Palm Beach, Florida. The card was promoted by Bobby Bostick
Promotions.
This fight was simply brutal, as the men tried their best
to annihilate each other, holding nothing back, and certainly giving the crowd
their money's worth.
In the end it was not to be for the local favorite, David
Estrada, who seemingly ran out of steam and eventually got caught by a crushing
right hand to the temple that sent him to the canvas in very bad shape. Somehow
Estrada managed to beat the count, and was observed closely by referee James
Warring who stopped the fight seconds later when Cintron connected several
clean, accurate power punches to a hurt and dazed Estrada. The official time
was 1:13 of round 10 of a scheduled 12 rounder. At the time of the stoppage the
official scorecards looked like this: 85-86 | 84-87 | 84-87 for Cintron.
With the win Cintron earned the IBF's #2 spot, his record
now at 26-1, 24 KOs.
On a sad note we must report that David Estrada became ill
while in his dressing room, and was transported by ambulance to a nearby
hospital. His condition is unknown at the time of this report.
However, ringside physicians felt that Estrada had to have suffered at least a
concussion, possibly something worst. We pray that won't be the case...
