Jose Manuel Urtain vs. Alfredo Evangelista ~ "Slaughter in Spain"

[Bill Paxtom]

After a 'near disaster' in Round 1, Alfredo Evangelista turned it around in Round 2, but nearly got dropped late
in the Round when he got careless.

Round 2 >

Jose Manuel Urtain came out 'bombing', but little more than 30-Seconds into the Round he started to slow down.

Alfredo then made his move, and started to land some good left-hooks to Urtain's head that 'rattled' the veteran
33 year-old Spaniard.

At the {1:20 Mark}, Alfredo landed '2' hard left-hooks to Urtain's chin that shook him, and a follow-up double
left-hook dropped Urtain a 3-Count.

Jose got up, but looked 'wobbly'. Alfred moved in, and fired with left-right combinations to both the head and body.

Alfredo swarmed over Jose and drove him backwards into the back left Ropes. There, the young Uruguayan slammed
away with an assortment of rights and lefts to the body.

At the {2:40 Mark} Jose looked to be in big trouble and was on the verge of being stopped. But amazingly, the
'Birthday Boy' rallied with a big right-hand to Alfredo's jaw, and then followed with hard 6-Punch flurry that drove
Alfredo backwards toward Center-Ring.

A shaken Alfredo was forced to box-and-circle over the last 15-Seconds as Jose stalked like a Tiger.
