    Fun morning bud. Sometimes being old and retired is boring. Boring. Make sure to make yr life spectacular. So when you look back on it 50vyrs from now you smile and laugh. Believe me it seems I was 19 yesterday. Now at 66 you can't conceive how fast life goes by. Good time arguing with you.

    Good entertaining fight for the first 5 rounds, with Rose probably winning, until Zarate picks up the pace, grinds down Rose, and then stopping him late. Zarate knew how to take his time and calmly break his opponents down. Good match up.

    rose was a very smooth boxer and i really rate him. but how many bantamweights would have beaten zarate at his best?? to me, zarate, on his best night, beats everyone.

    rose gives him Trouble early, but zarates power gets to him by round 10.
