Nineteenth win for ‘Rebel’ Perez in Germany

UNDEFEATED Cork-based heavyweight Mike “The Rebel” Perez improved to 19 victories with a convincing points decision over Travis Walker in Germany on Saturday.

The Cuban-born southpaw, who fights out of Watergrasshill BC, earned a unanimous decision over the Texan at the SAP Arena in Mannheim.

The 27-year, fighting for the first time since December 2011, dominated most of the ten-rounder and looked as if he could have stopped the American, but settled for a point win.
