    Great fight.

    Beterbiev is getting ancient, but in his prime he'd badly dismantle both these guys.

    Those scorecards were bullshit but Benavidez deserved the win. Great fight.

    Morrell, despite the loss, didn't suffer any drop in his stock.

    He showed that he has a good chin and heart.

    I'd pay anything to watch Morrell splatter Bumlanga.

    Benavidez actually surprised me with his defense. A much better defensive skill than given credit. Morrell wasn’t able to consistently hit him as often as he expected.

    The sheer size of Benavidez's nipples tends to bamboozle and put off most opponents.

    Surprised at what a stinkfest Figueroa vs. Fulton II turned out to be.

    Luckily, the Cuello and Cruz fights were both great.

    That's actually quite better numbers than I expected. I remember the days when 300k was considered a success for proven stars like Morales and Barrera fighting each other's but have 0 idea of what the target was for this fight. But considering they were probably paid a couple of millions each minimum, my guess is that it bled money unfortunately

    Btw, just caught the highlights of Fierro and Cruz and it looked like FNF level at best. Not sure if Cruz is washed up or if he took Fierro lightly buy boy did he looked slow and ponderous vs what is basically a journeyman
