    You could see Ramos was just biding his time. Shimoda couldn't keep that pace up for 12. Ramos was too strong. He was just missing. I thought it would be a big right, but the left landed. Surprise!!!

    Cintron and his brain trust made a big mistake taking a tough fight after 14 months out of the ring. Molina kept the pressure on Cintron, and that's what he needed to do. Molina's a tough guy, but he lacks power which may hurt him against a legitimate 154 lb banger, but good job tonight.

    Does Margaritos two wins over Cintron count......lmao?

    Question. Do any of you think Margarito cheated in the past?

    Dont forget to give props to Lara for his surprising beating over Williams.

    I haven't seen Ramos-Shimoda (just highlights shown by HBO between rounds during Williams-Lara) but to me that isn't really even an upset. I picked Rico to win, and was surprised more people didn't since he's shown his talent on TV many times now.


    Shimoda got lots of shine for beating Lee, who in turn had most of his shine from beating Poonsawat.

    It isn't like Shimoda was a time-and-again proven champ.

    Shimoda was actually winning up to the stoppage.

    Ramos was getting schooled before the KO, but props to him. I was rooting for him too

    So I've heard, but Ramos ultimately won - and to me, that isn't a big upset.

    That should never have been seen as having a strong favorite or big underdog either way.

    You'd almost think Ramos wasn't a ****-hot prospect who'd never done anything but look impressive and win almost every round of his career up to that point, by how little chance some gave him against a LARGELY unproven one-hit wonder in Shimoda (whose one hit was itself in turn over ANOTHER one-hit wonder).

    Carlos Molina - underrated his whole damn career. I've been saying he's hugely underrated since the JCC Jr fights.

    Having said that, I thought he'd lose tonight.

    You need to peep the fight and find out why it was surprising. Ramos was down on the cards by 4 points if I'm not mistaken. Ramos has always shown promise, but it looked like he was going to be out pointed. I kept thinking one shot will turn it around for him, and that one shot wound up ending the fight.

    Ramos was cut badly from a butt too.

    Yeah, HBO showed that on the highlights. That was like the round before the KO, right?

    So do you think that pissed him off and made him go for the kill?

    Yeah, he started throwing harder shots. It did give him a sense of urgency.
