Carpentier goes for the kill and the Frenchman's accurate hard shots leave Pascal's right eye a

Light Heavyweight Glory Days Boxing World Cup

Group H Willie Pastrano vs Len Harvey 10 Rounds

Very cautious round for both fighters as they probe for weaknesses
Harvey takes control in the last third of round and draws blood from Pastrano's nose
Very close round Harvey early Pastrano late as he counters well ever though blood flows from his nose again
Both fighters more concerned with defense this round as punches finding the mark are minimal
Good round for Harvey as his solid combos and ring movement keep Pastrano off balance and eating leather
Harvey wearing down Pastrano in a rugged close round Havey's aggression could sway the judges
Tired Pastrano shows heart and will as he is hurt but stays on his feet and rallies late cutting Harvey's right cheek
Pastrano even though tired still able to frustrate Harvey and land more than he takes
Breathing from the mouth Pastrano refuses to back down and again out works and lands Harvey
The final round was a roll reversal of the prior 3 rounds as it is Harvey gutting it out and landed
Ladies and Gentlemen we go to the Judges for the decesion

Judge Adelaide Byrd scores it 96-94 Harvey
Judge Frank Lombardi scores it 97-94 Pastrano
Judge Richard Green scores it 96-95
for the winner by split decesion…..

Good back and forth round evenly fought Harvey bloodies Pascal's nose
another tough round with late rally by Pascal
Pascal's opening salvo gashes Harvey above the left eye fight allowed to continue Harvey tries to rally but it is Pascal in the final minute
Harvey knowing how bad the cut is fights with urgency and Pascal obliges him
Harvey hurts Pascal ealry but can't finish scores well for remainder of round as Pascal tries to clear his head and get his legs right
Since the cut Harvey has come on strong not wanting to be stopped Pascal has seemed to lose focus since being hurt in prior round
Pascal is tagged goes back to the ropes seems to be tiring Harvey looks to end has he throws hard to the head
the blows are evaded by Pascal and BOOM goes the counter right cross left hook and down goes Harvey he just beats the count
rising at 9 on unsteady legs Pascal races after him as this is the moment for victory for the tiring Pascal He fires over and over again
the gash rips open again and the river of blood pours Referee Steve Smoger leaps in and halts the contest with 58 seconds left in
