Easy for Acuña
By Ewan Whyte
December 16, 2006

     
   
   
   
   

Having abandoned her quest for Ina Menzel's world title after only three rounds in April,  Maribel Santana presumably thought  robbing Marcela Acuña of hers would be easier.

Like taking sweets from a baby, for example?

Last night in front of 4,000 spectators in the Centro Deportivo Municipal (CeDeM) Nº 2  in Caseros (Buenos Aires) and a live TV audience, the 35-year-old recognized her error, the submission this time coming only 37 seconds into the second round when the woman from the Dominican Republic signalled unambiguously to the referee her unwillingness to continue.

With her out of the way, the Tigress turned to other matters: her feud with fellow Argentinian Alejandra Oliveras, who will be measuring herself over 8 rounds this Friday (22 December) in a new venue, the Lawn Tennis Club of Buenos Aires, against one Claudia “La Chica 10” López (5-1) of  Chubut.  After expressing scepticism as to whether the fight to unify her own WBA and Oliveras's WBC super bantamweight titles will now ever take place, Acuña told reporters: "Oliveras is scared of me. That's why she's asking for so much money."
