    Tito v Whitaker was a better fight than DLH-Quartey, which featured 10 dull as **** rounds.

    Trinidad-Whitaker was good but not up to the standard of the fights on the poll.

    Ayala-Tapia was my favorite.

    I went to Oscar-Quartey. It was alright. I think it is overrated due to 2 good rounds, the 6th and the 12th.

    Larry Merchant called it a better fight than the runaway leader on this poll. And I agree with him.

    I also think it's a better fight than half the fights listed on this poll.

    Looks like De La Hoya-Quartey wins in a poll people don't care about much.Only 16 votes:? .
