JOSEPH AGBEKO RETURNS IN STYLE...KNOCKS OPPONENT IN 4TH ROUND

Joseph Agbeko took care of business on his first
return to the ring in 17 months, pounding Filipino
opponent, Juanito Rubillar Saturday night in the
El Paso County Coliseum, EL Paso, Texas, USA.
Agbeko, the former three-time world
bantamweight champion, has lost some recent
tough decisions — and his title.
He needed this win to get back into the title
picture and he got just that with a fourth-round
technical knockout over veteran Juanito Rubillar
(49-23-7) of the Phillipines in their super
bantamweight fiesta.
Agbeko (now 30-6, 26 knockouts) cut Rubillar
over the left eye in the second round and
continued to use good angles, good combinations
to finish off his opponent.
The fight was stopped at 1:31 in the fourth
round as the cut continued to get worse.
"It took me a few rounds to get warmed up,"
Agbeko said. "But this is my best comeback."
