    Love the knockout where Olievera had the delayed reaction that said "Oh i'm fine i can hold on, OH **** MY LEGS, OH **** MY BRAIN"

    And is half conscience on the canvas thinking, "Why did I pick Freitas, now i'm exposed and everyone in my country hates me."

    Nice. That 4 minute clip had more excitement than all 3 major bouts on Showtime last night combined. He did look good in there. I wonder if GBP will be calling him up for September? Wouldn't surprise me at all.

    Oliveira fumbled the torch pass.

    Eh, he was losing both of the bouts in which he "quit" (which earned him an unfair reputation, given how much heart he'd shown in the prime of his career)

    :nod Very impressive, he probably surprised everyone including those closest to him.

    When Oliveira went down, though - look at Acelino's face. Barely bats an eyelash at the ease with which he'd accomplished it.

    "yeah, that's right".

    He knew he was too much for this kid, even now. He alone knew. What an animal! :p

    Thats what that idiot Olivera gets for calling out an old, supposedly out of shape legend just to add his name to his resume. Popo did great.

    Put Freitas at Welterweight for a couple bouts, get a few bucks, satisfy local fans then retire.
