    I've got to agree. And Concepcion reminded me of Gatti a bit.

    Absolutely FOTY so far.

    People are going to start accusing me of crying wolf, as it's only April and this is the second or third time already I've proclaimed something the FOTY...but this just completely overshadowed Gonzalez-Vargas, Lee-McEwan, Rios-Acosta, and Yamanaka-Iwasa...combined.

    I really doubt anything will supplant it for pure adrenaline content.

    FFS, look at how bat**** crazy it made me during the RBR:

    Watched it yesterday, and just went through it again about an hour ago(youtube).......What a fight.

    Concepcion took too much punishment. He has one hell of a chin and what a warrior.

    Great win for Marquez!

    I'll watch it after I finish watching MAB/Morales III. Let's see if it holds up to that candle

    Unfair comparison. Marquez/Concepcion is still a great fight though!

    :D Not trying to be a dick about the fight, I just happen to be watching a bunch of MAB fights today before I move on to this one.

    It's a shame that this high intensity action fight was omitted from American tv. If there's indeed a rematch, hopefully it will get picked up by Showtime or HBO.

    I defy anyone to argue that this isn't the clear #1.

    Other than the ending, perfect fight.

    Concepcion looks like a lovechild of Gatti and Malignaggi

    Yeah he really does look like a Gatti. I'd like to see a rematch hope its as good. Concepcion really needs to work on his defence. I'd like to see more of Tysons fights
