    Monitel = beast

    Unfortunately for his fanbase which was pretty arrogant and talking mad trash, I accurately predicted this. Not quite so early but in the same fashion.

    I just can't help but draw the comparisons between Williams and Montiel. thinking about how they'll recover is interesting...

    I've repeatedly given props to Montiel on different threads. The guy is a typical mexican warrior with a big fighting heart.

    There is nothing to dislike on the guy. A TRUE professional in and out of the ring.

    prob the best way to respect Montiel is to NOT MAKE a ****ing sympathy thread for him after a loss....

    Just trying to keep it real....

    Not many people could have gotten up from a hook like that.

    I was gobsmacked.

    In the build up to the fight Montiel has been nothing but class. In the ring he showed himself to be a true warrior. He has made me a fan!

    Respect!

    Montiel is definitely the real deal.

    May be this fight is like Montiel passed the torch to Donaire as one of great lighter weight boxers.

    After watching the fight, I feel some nostalgia.

    Montiel is definitely a fighter that deserves respect. I know some people talked some **** about him being overrated and whatnot after he lost, but anyone that follows the sport knows Montiel is a true, respected champion and has been for a while.

    Massive respect to Montiel, a great champion who ran into a steam-train on Saturday. How Montiel got up from that shot I don't know.
