Ortiz Stops Bizzarro To Keep Lightweight Title In 12th
Carlos Ortiz, cut over the right eye, stopped Johnny Bizzarro at 2:29 of the 12th round at Pittsburgh Civic Arena to retain the world lightweight title. The referee halted a furious Ortiz assault after a left hook and body shot left Bizzarro wobbling near his corner. Judges had Ortiz ahead 51-49, 52-50 and 50-49 as boos rang out from a crowd sensing an upset. Ortiz, 29, weighed 135 pounds at the noon weigh-in and reclaimed the title previously held since 1962 after beating Laguna in 1965 and La guna in 1967.
