Cook keeps European title
LONDON, Oct 23: James Cook forced Flnaldn's Tarmo Uuslvirta Into a sudden seventh round
surrender to retain his European super-middleweight title here on Tuesday, reports AFP.
After a hectic battle, Uustvlrta finally turned to his corner with both arms raised signalling that he had taken enough.
It was a dramatic and somewhat unexpected way for cook to gain revenge over Uustvlrta — the first Finn to challenge for a European title In 23 years, for Uusirylrta flo-
orded and outpointed Cook In his homeland In October 1987 and at various stages of Tuesday night's clash, looked as though he could beat him a^in.
But the pace and ferocity of the fight never suggested that It would go the distance.
’! felt him going in the sixth round" said 32-year -old Cook, who also retains his leading contender's position in the World Boxing Association (WBA) rankings.
But there were time* when he looked just as desperate as the Finn did at the finish during his first fight under the new management of Mickey Duff.
Cook, In hts second defence of the title he won earlier this year, was the master of the opening round, quickly connecting with a right to Uusirta's chin.
But the champion was prone to get caught with right counters and was drawn into a fighting rather than boxing mode, which displeased his cornermen.
Uuslvirta, seeing a chance of the title at the age of 34, raised hfs pace in the third putting Cook under terrific pressure on the ropes, although being dropped himself momentarily by a right uppercut.
Cook was urged frantically by Duff at the end of the round not to get drawn into a battle. He responded with a good early uppercut but hi* work began to took untidy a* well a* showing a shade of fatigue.
But Uuafvlrta's effort* drained him as well and Cook had more success tn the fifth before taking control in the sixth.
Uuslvirta missed frequently while Cook managed lo get hts act together and lands the tilling punches which were to keep hts crown
Cook was on target with another ripping uppercut at the start of the seventh, more pouches landed on the target
and before Uustvlrta turned away and out of the fight after 58 seconds of the round.
This was the most satisfying performance because not many people give me a return like this man did." said Cook.
"It made the win all the more special, my pflde was at stake as well as the title."
"1 listened bo my corner all ihe time. I wanted lo hit him back but they kept telling me to box. box, box' and I followed their advice.''
"I saw him quit with hts raised hands. 1 could have hit him again — but It was quitting time."
Duff said: "James boxed like a dream, he listened to very-thlng. but. in fact, his Interpretation was probably better than the advice. In tact, he boxed better than we told him to do."
