    Yes, I did. And he looked like a punching bag for the first five rounds.

    Hello? He fought Acosta, not a Marquez. No one was giving Acosta a chance to win this fight.

    Rios was the prohibitive favorite and you know that if you were listening to the telecast prior to the fight.

    Being the favorite, and "nobody giving him a chance" are two entirely different things.

    Showtime be damned! There were MANY in the boxing media, and on forums who were picking Acosta.

    An example of nobody giving the guy a chance is Matthew Hatton on Saturday. And rightfully so. He's a bum, and the ginger is being handed an easy belt.

    Acosta is a world class fighter, and Bam Bam deserves credit for beating him, and HOW he beat him.

    I sense alot of unecessary Rios hate from several posters.

    Yeah, I don't remember Rios being that much of a favorite.

    Without going on gambling sidtes, I found this from Graham Houston:

    After the way Garcia,Rios & Margarito made light of the wraps situation and made fun of roach's Parkinsons, it showed what scrum they are.
