Fernando Montiel Denies That He Suffered a Facial Fracture

Him saying that his mental faculties weren't even at 50% afterward should dispel any remaining doubts people had about the stoppage.

It looked weird, with him seemingly ready to go on and with the referee stepping in before Donaire could connect with anything really solid after having let it continue - but if even he acknowledges his lack of situational awareness at the time it's a blessing that it didn't progress any further.

 

sweet!

 

You'll be back buddy, return hard with full force... I can't wait.

MONTIEL FTW!

 

Yeah! And if Tommy Morrison and Ruslan Chagaev say ain't nothin' wrong, who are we to say otherwise? Let these people alone!

 

Nice to hear a fighter admitting that a fight was stopped at the right time.

It's always excuses these days.
I have huge respect for Montiel after the fight and wish him all the best.

True warrior.

 

I don't think you Montiel "fans" really have his best interests at heart. That was a career ender.

There's a fine line between stupidity and bravery.

There's a very good reason why Spinks retired after Tyson and why Hatton retired after Pacquiao.

They didn't want to end up like Ali.

 

That was about as brutal a knock out a human being can sustain and live to talk about it the next day.Montiel ought to be very,very careful from here on.This is a career ender.I trust he was well paid and has a family who cares about him.

 

He has pride and a lot of heart but he wont be back, that's just his pride talking. He'll fight again but his confidence and punch resistance wont be the same again.

:hat

 

Oh, tee hee.

 

he wont helpless that fighter woke up and beat the 9 count

 

Nah, wrong!

Montiel is a ****ing warrior. Never compare to hatton, hatton got punished by Mayweather, then Brutallly killed by PAC and stayed sleeping.

Montiel got up, had never been punished and will recover from this strong powerful but not carreer ending punch.

He will go on to do great things. Yous swear a warrior like Montiel is gonna say I'm done, he wants to come back sooner... but his dad said 3-4 months before he enters the ring again. His fans wait for him to return...

WAR MONTIEL!

 

No I'm not a doctor AND I NEVER CLAIMED TO BE.

I asked a simple question.

You used to be a cool poster....you need to get off your "high-horse" *******!

 

No shame in losing to the p4p #1b fighter in the world. Montiel can fight Darchinyan on a Nonito Donaire undercard and get a good pay day .

 

ummm....montiel hasn't fought the p4p #1 fighter in the world yet......tha hell are you talking about??
