Round 5:

Jab from Munroe. Body shots and short hooks from Munroe. Even though Bouaita has him in a headlock....Munroe is warned? WTF>?>!>!!>? Ref finally warns the frenchman. Jabs and hooks from Munroe, and he has Bouaita in the corner. Good left and right hooks from Munroe, switches up and down when Bouaita is pinned in the corner, and Munroe has bouaita in bother. Great hooks, left and right, and Bouaita looks stunned. Arms down reeling about the ring, is he playing possum or really taking a beating. The second option for me. Uppercut from Bouaita, but a left hook and a jab. Munroe clippin him. Bouaita hitting the back of the head. Blatant from the dirty frenchman. I know it's a cliche, but it's true.

Munroe is battering him.

Good right left hook, and another left, and Bouaita seems to be reeling. Bouaitais grabbing the arms constantly. This is a bizarre challenge for an European title. Left hook. Bouaita with a body shot and an uppercut, but takes a few hooks. Huge left hook, and a right, and Bouaita clinches again. Bouaita clinches again.

Is this guy even a boxer?

70-64 to Munroe.

[superheavyrhun]

Salem Bouaita's corner have pulled him out at the end of the round, and Munroe's work has paid dividends, and Bouaita was never in the same class as the hard punching Monroe.

8 weeks after Munroe's title victory over Martinez, he makes a successful first defence.

There were some bizarre machinations in the french corner there, with Bouaita laughing at his corner during rounds, and arguing between the rounds. something was amiss, and the official explanation is that Bouaita had an injured arm.

Yeah right.

Great win for rendall.

Comments:

Rendall Munroe said of the mandatory fight: "It was tough. He came here for the payday really, he kept holding all the time. My coach told me to keep pushing forward, and that's what i did. I've shown I can box in different styles now too. I had to keep my head on the game and do what I do. In the last three rounds he didn't throw a punch."

Frank Maloney also criticised the European boxing authorities for giving Bouaita a shot, saying: "It's an absolute disgrace that he's an European mandatory challenger, he just kept holding, and the ref should have thrown him out of there for that. The authorities should have a look at their rankings if he's the number one challenger for the European Super Bantamweight title. Rendall's doing well and he can go on from here."
