The 8 round Bout with Lauricella presented Veto with a new test. The 20-year-old Veto boxed smartly against an opponent who often switched from orthodox to southpaw. The Optimum Sports Agency’s Hungarian prospect constantly connected to the head and body of the Italian. Lauricella had little luck getting to the head of the faster Veto and instead concentrated on countering him. Veto boxed intelligently and frequently connected with his right hand in the first few rounds, instead of going for the early stoppage Veto was patient and followed the game plan.
After a combination in the fourth round which bloodied Lauricella’s nose, Veto appeared inspired and began to apply more pressure forcing Lauricella onto the ropes and pounding the game Italian. After the fifth round ended, Lauricella’s trainer Ralf Hasenohr made a decision to stop fight. It was the correct decision.
“I am happy to be the winner here. I love my sport, like I’ve never loved it. This was my best professional-fight. I gave my all, but although I didn’t show everything. There’s no doubt that there are higher challenges against stronger opponents which lies yet ahead of me”, said Veto. And Enrico Lauricella : “I simply just couldn’t find the key to victory against Gabor today. I’m sorry for my many fans and the great public here in Elzach.”
After the fight the Mayor of Veto’s hometown Varpalota, Arpad Nemeth, congratulated Veto, All Varpalotans are very proud of you. We wait for your homecoming!“ Veto now looks towards a match with German-Iranian Mohesen Moradian (3-1, 1 KO) for the WBC Youth Lightweight Title Eliminator in front of a big crowd at the Castle of Varpalota in Hungary on July 25th, 2009.
