Ortiz retains bantamweight title in hard fought draw
Manuel Ortiz of El Centro California retained the world bantamweight crown after a 15 round title defense against Ernesto Aguilar of Mexico City in Los Angeles. A crowd of 16500 saw Ortiz win on a two to one verdict that the referee interpreted as a draw amid close rounds and late British style counters. Ortiz absorbed southpaw agility but landed sharper blows in plenty of close exchanges. Aguilar was knocked to the canvas in the seventh but recovered, leaving both fighters marked with facial cuts and Ortiz nose bleeding at the finish.
