    Exhibit A in "Don't overlook anyone". Cab may win, but this is not how he needed to look on an HBO co-feature.

    This fight does kind of suck. It's a shame that a respected champion like CC can look so unskilled.

    Round 10

    Caballero tries to follow a jab from the outside with a right hand that sails in a high arc overhead. Litzau floats his left hand out looking to deflect Caballero's punches and/or push his head away when he ducks in to avoid clinches. Caballero stands up straight and hops on his toes and gets cauught with a hook on the inside. Caballero tries to square up to hit Litzau before the American Boy can turn and set his feet, but then quickly puts his arms out to pin down Litzau's when he realizes he doesn't have time to get any punches off. Caballero tries another long, chopping 1-2 that misses. Litzau lands a short glancing left hook up high at Celestino's nose. Caballero ducks down and Jason works his body. Caballero tries a counter right hand to fight off the ropes but it's a wet noodle. Litzau is gassing but going hard for the KO. He keeps working the right hand down the middle and barely missing. Litzau lands a stiff jab and knocks Caballero into the ropes. A left hook lands for Litzau at the bell!!!

    Litzau should win. Lederman scored every round exactly the same as me, for a final tally of 96-94. Merchant has it 5-4-1 for Litzau

    Great entertaining fight. I thought Litzau won. He should get the nod.

    7-3 Litzau

    I see no way how someone could score it for Cab, but I can see a draw if someone was reaching for him

    No matter what the result here, Litzau won a moral victory.

    Wouldn't suprise me.

    Litzau didn't land half as much as it looked like but he deserves it more than CC who looked shocking through most of it.
