    Gassiev is really a gentleman, and Dorticos has so much heart. Respect.

    That was beautiful and heartfelt. Although Dorticos needs to buck up a little, he got KO'd in the best way possible, it was nothing to be ashamed of.

    Was happy to see the sportsmanship after the bout.

    Also happy Dorticos was ok.

    Great night for the sport, and I think both men enhanced their reputations.

    Dorticos has guts to take that fight in Gassiev's backyard.

    Nice gesture from the Gassman.

    Dorticos did Cuba proud tonight.

    Classy move by gassiev. Dorticos wanted to win badly as confident as he was going in it must really do something to you when the fight doesnt go your way and you get knocked out. He had to be shocked that he wasn't good enough and gassiev didnt fold like everyone else did. You feel bad for doriticos crying but it's interesting to see at the sametime. Moments like that are what make boxing such a great sport. The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.

    What the hell are they doing? That guy needs to be in a hospital getting checked out, not at a press conference. He's obviously badly concussed in addition to being emotional.

    Gassiev is a class act and he always comes across as a really nice guy.

    Hands down this is /was the fight of 2018 YTD and one we need to bookmark in December and reflect on when looking for FOTY
    Dorticos took shots that should have dropped him or anyone and yet he keep grinding
