World Cup of Boxing: Early Results (RP up 2-0)

[Sweet Pea Pacquiao]

According to the NEWS for FIGHTS, Gabi beat Beranza by UD and Domingo upset Roman by UD, with both fights' judges having the Filipinos win EVERY round (80-72 across the board for the first fight, and 60-54 for the second one)! I will eat my words about Domingo losing. I thought Roman would dominate that fight.

That puts the Philippines up 2-0 in the Best of 6 series.
Still left in the Mexico v. Philippines matchups:

Cardenas v. Banal
Ortiz v. Gorres
Penalosa v. J. Gonzalez
De Leon v. Bautista

[Sweet Pea Pacquiao]

I believe the Pacquiao-Barrera fight on Oct. 6 would be the tiebreaker if it ends up 3-3 tonight.
