Bobby Chacon vs. David Sotello ~ "The Riot at The Forum"

[Bill Paxtom]

David "The Sniper' Sotello

From Guadalara, Mexico.

'The Sniper' who had been campaigning since 1966 was a 10-Year Professional. The Mexican
was a straight forward rushing aggressive fighter, who had no se for defense.

David was 'wild', but was a tough-cookie who came to fight.

With a record of 39-10-2 {22 KO's}, David was coming off a 'Hell of a Performance' in giving
WBC Featherweight Champion - David Kotey a battle in Accra, Ghana only 2-months earlier
on December 21, 1975.

It was a 10-Round 'non-title' bout that saw Sotello give the African-boxer everything that he
wanted for the entire bout in an exciting thriller. Only a 'rally' in Rounds 7 and 10,
saved Kotey from a defeat in his home country.

David was also a streaky-fighter, where from > April 1971 -thru- April 1973 > he went unbeaten in
'17-Bouts' by going 15-0-2 with {10 KO's}

In his most current winning streak from > August 1974 -thru- August 1975 > Sotello went 8-0-0
with 4 KO's. But in his last '3-Bouts', David has lost all of them by 10-Round Decision.
