Mendoza Association of Boxing ~ Mendoza, Mendoza, Argentina

Nicolino Locche ~ 36-1-7 {8 KO's} ~ 135 lbs.
vs.
Gregoria Cinta ~ 21-0-4 {10 KO's} ~ 145 lbs.

A 'rematch' of their controversial bout on February 22nd in Gregorio Cinta's hometown
of Salta.

This time, Nicolino gets the room he needs, and stays away from the mauling Cinta.

The first 3-Rounds are fought 'evenly', as both spend their time by feinting or moving.

Nicolino is solid and steady over the middle-Rounds against the 20 year-old Cinta, by
scoring with left-jabs to the face, and left-hooks to the liver.

Each time that the Salta Welterweight moves in to maul, the Referee immediately breaks
up the holding. The visiting Cinta cannot land with anything effective, and cannot get
close enough to out-muscle Nicolino like he had in their '1st-Bout'.

By Round 7, Cinta has a bruised up face, and is no longer the 'frisky fighter' he was earlier.

Nicolino seals the bout by sweeping the last 3-Rounds of the bout.

Reports have the bout scored at { 200-195 } or 5-0-5 in Rounds for the hometown Hero
Nicolino Locche.
