Lee retains WBA title<\/p>\n
SEOUL (Reuter): South Korea's Lee Hyung-chul knocked out
\nJapan's Tamura Tomonori in the final seconds of a 12-round bout
\nto retain his World Boxing Association (WBA) junior bantamweight
\nboxing title yesterday.<\/p>\n
The 25-year-old Lee led the fight, in the southern city of
\nPusan, from the first round with a flurry of rights and lefts to
\nthe forehead and torso of Tomonori, 10th in the WBA rankings.<\/p>\n
An exhausted Tomonori, whose right eye almost closed with
\nconstant punishment, could not ward off a final assault from the
\nSouth Korean in the 12th round. It was Lee's first defense of the
\ntitle since he won it from Japan's Katsuya Onizuka last
\nSeptember.<\/p>",
