    Frankie Liles vs Tim Littles 2 was an exciting fight nobody expected. Liles, tall, rangy southpaw counter puncher, neither big punchers, both good friends, first fight went to points but instead of another cagey 12 rounder we got a 3 rd war instead with everything.

    1st rd - Liles knocks down Littles, rd ends with a 2 min rd. Liles corner furious.

    2nd Rd - Liles wobbled in rd 2, Littles is cut, Littles deducted a point for fouls and then another knockdown as Liles drops Littles again and that's just the first 2 rds.

    3rd Rd - Littles starts rd 3 by knocking Liles right out of the ring lol. Liles beaten up for most of rd 3 but ends the rd with a one punch KO.

    Barry Galahad v Kiko Martinez

    Usually Barry's fights are dull but this was entertaining and hilarious.

    That fight wasn't exciting it was brutal and sad. Almost ended his career because the fans bullied him for getting a gift against Pacquiao.

    Whitaker vs Hurtado. Whitaker a defensive wizard being dropped and having to rally to KO Hurtado and save his title and a big payday with Oscar.

    Cory Spinks vs. Verno P., Deandre Latimore, K9... pretty much his entire late run once his legs were gone. He just stood and slugged. Tried a bit of Matrix style James Toneyesque pocket defense still, but...he really became a lot more offensive minded by necessity and his fights in this period were actually mostly really good.
