    Good thread. The Kalambay victory over Mike won't appeal to everybody, but it's good to see how easily Sumbu is handling such a great fighter like McCallum.

    I'm not sure I would call Gomez vs sanchez a 1 sided drubbing? Sanchez opens up on him early in the fight, but Gomez battled back and it was almost even after 6. His eye was all puffed up, and I don't think he could of beat Sanchez at this weight even without that, but he was a game challanger. I would say Sanchez won convincingly, but i'm not sure I could go that far...Gomez gave him as much he could want handle for 7 rds. Not sure I could put Arguello Pryor II there either?
