    I thought he looked great and I believe all things considered had the performance of the night. I was really impressed with him, he'll be a tough out for anyone going forward.

    Hell yeah! Almost complete domination of an elite and awkward BW. And he made it look easy, brawling at times.

    I believe Moreno stole the night. He put on a "Sweet Pea" esque boxing masterclass. I mean this is the same Vic who went to war with Mares and Agbeko, both in tough fights, and Moreno handled him like he was a ****ing bum off the street.

    That was a virtuoso performance. But Darchinyan also fought like a complete moron.

    Yeah he did, but I honestly don't think it would matter, he was outclassed.

    Dude was confident, cool, fast, great footwork, had some "pop" not super power but made Vic notice, vicious to the body, and showed a great chin when he was hit. He is only 26 but looked far older in terms of experience. Really good young fighter.

    He's quite Zapata-esque, hopefully without the mental issues. So far it seems that way. Loved how after both times Darchinyan threw him to the canvas he just got back up like nothing happened, completely unfazed, and went back to what he was doing - outclassing Vic.

    His mental toughness and focus was really impressive especially considering how young he is.

    I think moreno has the most dominating performance of the night but Cotto had the best overall performance. Never saw moreno before but based in last night he is gonna be a problem. All the smaller guys are officially on notice.

    I kept thinking that at any moment, Chemito was gonna check hook Vic into the ringpost... Vic was fighting like a douchebag, lunging in and throwing wildly.

    I could agree with this, it was my first time to see him too, I was really impressed.
