Ali defeats Sandell

By Uwe Betker at ringside

December 17, 2005

Women's superstar Laila Ali stopped Asa Sandell in round five Saturday night in Berlin. The 6'2 Sandell put on a much better performance than most expected, connecting regularly with a sneaky left hook. The bout ended in the fifth round when Ali unleashed a barrage of unanswered punches prompting a referee's stoppage. Sandell seemed more winded than hurt, and the stop was not popular with the 10,000+ in attendance. After the fight, in a touching moment, ring legend Muhammad Ali leaned over the ring ropes and kissed his daughter.
