    10-9 López, pretty typical showcase. Santibañez outclassed but not lying down for the kid.

    I need Drew or one of our other resident fashionistas to weigh in on Santibañez's CCA. I can't tell if it's fabulous or unforgivably heinous.

    Rather impressed with the stingy defense of Santibañez. He clearly knows López is eager to extend his perfect kayo streak and seems to almost have a playful approach to denying it to him. Just when it seems he might trap himself in a corner or exchange long enough to leave himself open he melts away, entirely covered up, and with a perfect sense of distance to evade with minimum energy burned. That said, this is a complete shutout 30-27 for López halfway in.

    López chucking like mad, hasn't started puffing yet.

    40-36

    That's @Serge's forte, and he's been MIA since Saturday.

    Damn he just doesn't tire of throwing bombs.

    Santibañez has absorbed some flush ones. Tough SOB.

    Yeah, I know Santillan can sometimes be patient to a fault, and I figured Valentin's aggression and the fact that he was fighting at home, would carry the day on the cards, even if Giovanni got the better of the action (hence my SD pick for SV). But that was a heck of a finish from Santillan. Showed some fire that I didn't know he had.

    I'm OK for the most part with multi-colored tribal motifs...But not those colors or that particular motif. I was a little nauseated by them, and I think Serge would have been apoplectic.

    Santabanez landed a couple of nice little rights in that frame to make it close. Did well to come back from a rather harrowing fourth where he was stunned and wobbled a couple of times. Earned his paycheck, a pesar de su feos pantolones.

    @CST80 @KiwiMan so many times!! Gut instincts are mans best friend!! How many times do we see it? The moment there is a waiver then the result will screw you over. That league and other people's picks are the devil...
