                    [Summary] => Former two-time world boxing champion Luisito Espinosa is hanging up his gloves for good. But sing no sad songs for the fighter who compiled a 45-10 record, with 24 knockouts, in an outstanding career. He walks away from the ring with head unbowed, his pride intact.


Espinosa, 33, had his share of ups and downs. Hermie Rivera, Joe Koizumi, and Rodel Gonzalez took turns managing his career until he found a true ally in Erlinda (Boots) Aniel, a Filipina real estate broker living in Daly City, California.

But yesterday, San Francisco-based lawyer Sydney Hall, who advises both Aniel and Espinosa, said he got a call from the fighter’s wife Mariecherie confirming the Sanchez appointment.

Scorecard Mess

Robert Aguallo recently sent a fax to Espinosa urging him to return to California where he can personally supervise his training.

But Espinosa said he's not leaving Manila until the fight site is confirmed. Besides, it's constantly raining in San Francisco and too cold for Espinosa to jog in the streets, added Espinosa's wife Mariecheri [DatePublished] => 2000-03-11 00:00:00 [ColumnID] => 133272 [Focus] => 0 [AuthorID] => [AuthorName] => [SectionName] => Sports [SectionUrl] => sports [URL] => ) ) )
