    I dont think they were angry and bitter about the loss, i think they were just genuinely worried for Nick and didnt appreciate the exaggerated celebrations at that time, i mean there was one of Figgys team jumping off the top rope like Rey Mysterio lol

    Nothing to apologise for Brandon! Entitled to celebrate an amazing finish to win the 3rd title.

    Let's spend 36 minutes trying to hurt each other, but don't dare celebrate if you actually manage it.

    Espinoza vs Figueroa would be a proper barn-burner.

    Yes.

    He KOed Fulton, who beat Figueroa twice, who KOed Ball.

    Took their time with the replay. No one saw that coming. Fig's power hadn't been troubling Ball up until then just his volume and Ball has always shown a pretty good chin. Thought it was very close heading into the last round. Fig outworking him but Ball landing the better shots. Thought Ball won 11 as so much of Fig's work hit gloves in that round but Fig still might have been slightly ahead or level. Doubt they would've given it to Fig anyway but no contrary to what Fig said it was close and he wasn't dominating

    Both are trained by Manny Robles, so it won't happen....probably.....Unless one of them ditches Robles.

    Let me guess. Ball was well on his way to winning a decision.
