    Arthur mugging to the camera (iirc) was cringeworthy / sad in equal measure.

    Massively misplaced bravado.

    I was supporting Gomez but couldn't help but beg Arthur to get that right hand up in the end.

    Pretty brutal fight, I have a love/hate thing with that one. Went a bit beyond, he got really beaten up... I know, it's boxing, but he just was not prepared for what happened to him.

    Ali taking those kidney shots from George Chuvalo. Probably helped dishearten Chuvalo down the stretch but he was winning easy anyway.

    as exciting as it was, i think morales turning southpaw against pac-man in the last round was rather foolish. he took some really massive shots in that round and cant help but think that took alot out of him

    Can't for the life of me remember the guys name, he's not well known, but some guy in australia i think it was lost the fight by TKO, and while the wnner was celebrating by standing on the ropes the other boxer ran up to him and nailed him in the ribs, then an all out brawl started in the crowd and the losing boxer started to join in aswell, was chaos
