    To be fair, Simon dropped him like an elevator down a shaft with a snapped cable.

    I'd take a drunken opiated up Lampley over Atlas anyday.

    Man, my Atlas hate is at major rage factor tonight.

    Torres was looking so good that round too, and then came back form the KD and was throwing back and then BOOM 1-2.. ****ing out.

    Garret Simon improves to 6-0 with 5 kayos.

    Too early to tell anything about his eventual quality as the finished article, but this is an impressive ledger for a kid who was technically a teenager three months ago. His power looked the real deal, too - and he showed poise not typically seen in a novice.

    "Respected columnist" Dan Rafael predicts that Rigondeaux will not become a crossover star, due to two things:

    - Cuban-American fans suck and don't support Cuban defectors in boxing. (at least not in tangible, quantifiable financial ways ie @ the gate)

    - Rigondeaux is boring.


    I don't entirely disagree. :yep

    Counterpoint:

    Atlas concedes he isn't always exciting, but hangs the "best body puncher in the business" tag on Rigondeaux.

    :think

    Fair assessment that I agree with.

    Also, funny name that is hard to pronounce. Bad combo.

    :lol:, Osuna is bragging about coming through on his fish-in-a-barrel prediction from the start of the broadcast - that we'd see the first FNF KO of the year.

    Good opener, good knockout. Fans got a good night in my opinion.

    Yeah, I thought that was a solid show. Hopefully there will be more of this caliber.
