Larcinese Wins by decision - Photos: Lori Steinhorst and Mary Ann Owen   (AUG 9) On Friday night at Buffalo Bill's Casino Resorts in Primm, Nevada,  Donatella Hutlin, Stockholm, Sweden, fell to 1-1, 1 KO when she battled a hard fought loss against Lucia Larcinese of Montreal Quebec, Canada now 2-4, 0 KO's. With only four rounds to work with it was clear from the onset that Larcinese was determined to make this fight hers. She did well to dictate the pace of the fight and landed the harder and more accurate shots.  Hutlin struggled a bit to find her rhythm but was able to land some fairly decent punches---yet failed to deter her competitor.  While Hutlin was able to maintain good form it appeared she was unable to execute her plan. Larcinese seemed confident, assertive and pressed the action in three of the four rounds. With toe-to-toe combat in all four rounds, it was Larcinese who emerged the victor with a unanimous decision. All three judges scored the fight 37-39.
