    This ref should NEVER be allowed to work a fight again!

    Shit Angulo should have followed through and killed the ref. What a stupid corner waving the towel.

    ALL of you should have a deduction in pay for that mess. That was shameful.

    The finger of blame should be pointed at the corner.....the ref really wasn't justified to stop the fight until the end of the 9th at the earliest......in that last round he did let it go on way too long but the corner should have got him out of there a lot sooner

    Lampey goes over the top though.....he's seen bad shit happen before, and it isn't a point he should ignore, but his morbid tirade was too much....repeatedly shouting "GO DOWN, GO DOWN" within the boxers' earshot isn't in the textbook for objective blow-by-blow commentary

    Too bad Joel Julio is fighting Dziriruk. I'd have loved to see him and Angulo fight. Julio certainly poses more of a threat than this Russian punching bag did.

    For all the offensive firepower Gamboa has, the way he carries his chin high will be his downfall. Simply gets hit too clean flush on the chin.

    Well, anybody else think it was weird that the ref jumped the gun on the count? Why do that?

    Its not just his chin...its his hands AND that chin. His attitude is terrible.

    I said this a few months ago before his last HBO "performance" and was crucified for it.

    If his opponent had a chin, he would have KTFO Gamboa and won me 100 bucks.

    His opponent was pretty shitty, man. That was a nice elbow he knocked Gamboa down with though.

    he is Ukranian, calling him russian is like calling a Canadian- American. And he is a tough and courageous fighter.

    Good main event.

    the elbow did not help Gamboa, but it was the right hand that floored him, no?

    I thought Gamboa touched down on the elbow as he was leaning in. I dunno though. Was close.

    No, it's more like rubber money that I use on your mom. It's okay, she swallows, so I'll get by this week.

    Tough yes. But limited as it gets, and slow n easy to hit as all hell.

    Julio would have provided a test to Angulo's chin.

    I agree with what you're saying, but I don't think X meant anything by it. He's jsut a bit ignorant is all.
