Damnit i want to see this one!
True, although i never really bought the "he was stronger/bigger than his 212lbs indicates". If we play that game, then exactly the same can be...
It wasn't just about losing. Him quitting had a lot of people thinking the fight was fixed, i think. The second fight certainly polarized any...
