                    [Title] => IBF to review Sorolla fight tape
                    [Summary] => 



International Boxing Federation (IBF) president Marian Muhammad isn’t turning her back on Marty Elorde’s appeal for a rematch between miniflyweight champion Muhammad Rachman and Filipino challenger Benjie Sorolla. At least, not yet.


Last Dec. 23, Rachman scored a seventh round technical knockout over Sorolla at the Indoor Tennis Senayan Stadium in Jakarta. Australian referee John Wright stopped the bout after the Indonesian landed six unanswered blows. Elorde, watching at ringside, said Wright’s decision was premature and came too soon.

Wright stepped in as Rachman landed six unanswered blows and ended the Filipino’s gallant attempt to dethrone the Indonesian, making the third defense of the 105-pound crown he won two years ago.
