a guy named contrerras is getting stretchered off of shobox right now
i hope he's alright
he's had well over 300 amateur fights
he got hit in the back of the head and fell very strangely on his forehead head and face
there wasn't any clear angle to show everything, but there was certainly some injury.
contrerras looked conscious by the time he was stretchered out of the ring but i cannot be certainLast edited by New England; 10-07-2011, 11:16 PM.

according to farhood contrerras had 358 amateur fights.
sounds a bit fishy to me
and i cant find a biography on the boxrec with a list of his am accomplishments
but that's what farhood said (after checking the DVR. by the main event of most shobox cards i am usually a zombie)

i've been very disappointed in the coverage as i've heard absolutely nothing, and i did do some digging that night
very disappointed indeed
i suppose that is a good sign in terms of his health. it would be a bigger story if he were seriously hurt, as grotesque a concept as that is.

obviously he took some big shots to the head, but i'm curious if you heard anything about his neck being biffed up?
he went down awful strange
The entire incident was bizzare. You have to take these type of things seriously. Fans were booing Ernie Shaaf when he went down from a jab by Primo Carnera. The beating he took against Max Baer was very likely the cause of his death.

Reporting in:
Linares applied a boxing clinic on DeMarco. However, due to a cut and him tiring out in the 11th Round the referee deemed it necessary to stop the fight as Linares was not returning any punches and just receiving blows from DeMarco.
Also, this commenter wants to point out that this is another Wild Card Gym boxer that lost this year. All the sparring partners of Manny Pacquiao lost their important fights.
Reminder, the 11th Round was beautiful war.
And Paulie Malignaggi fought a beautiful boxing match against his opponent who was perceived to be a knockout artist who couldn't knockout a featherfisted but fast slicing punches of Paulie.
