    I've just sat down, turned my Xbox on, and am on YouTube looking for it. I'll back in 10 or so with a post in the scorecard thread.

    I'll also probably watch the Hafey fight since that's got classic written all over it. How good are the Kotey fights?

    I literally only know half of these names from their fights with Olivares. :lol:
