    4-1 Santana but he lost a point. (48-46 Santana)

    Very dirty fighter with the mauling, elbowing and hitting on the break...he'll probably defeat Booker wide on points here, just on his strength and workrate, but when he steps further up against younger & fresher heavyweights I'm not sure he will have much to bother them.

    Another deduction to Santana, this one for a flagrant headbutt.

    Weird. Don't recall ever seeing that before - although since I've been watching boxing regularly for 45 years, I probably have!! :lol:

    Listening to Al Bernstein hem & haw there before tossing it back up to emcee JT Conway there was painful.

    (he'd just referred to musical guest Kish Moody as "Fish")

    Wait, no, JT Conway has a point - why is somebody wearing a live parrot on their shoulder in the ring?

    (either a member of Ermes Orta's entourage, I believe, or family member of event promoter Jiimmy Adams who came in for introductions & anthems)

    Looks like a bit of a mismatch based on records
