Karim “Hard Hitta” Mayfield Pounds Valenzuela!
Karim Mayfield
by Mario Cabrera,jr
Local prospect Karim “Hard Hitta” Mayfield, (9-0-1, 6 KOs), closed the show with a two-round beating of journeyman slugger Roberto Valenzuela, (49-47-2, 40 KOs), in a scheduled six-round junior middleweight bout.
Mayfield, a self-described budding fashion designer from across the bay in San Francisco, entered the ring looking dapper in a custom-designed gold and white robe. Valenzuela entered the ring with an astounding forty knockouts but from another time and against a lot of Mexican club fighters with winless records.
Once the bell rang, this fight went according to script, with the short and stocky headhunter Mayfield swinging for the fences against his taller, limited foe. There were no knockdowns in the bout but Mayfield buckled Valenzuela’s knees with a right hook to the body at the end of round one. Mayfield nearly sent Valenzuela to his knees again early in round two with a looping right hand, but Valenzuela was able to hang onto the ropes without the referee calling a knockdown.
However, the end came moments later as Mayfield landed several clubbing right hands with Valenzuela against the corner before the referee literally dragged Mayfield off to stop the fight at 1:12 of the round.
