I've been reading massive accolades on this one from people who saw it (that is, South Africans in attendance or watching on domestic television...as far as I know it wasn't streamed internationally and to date no video seems to have surfaced) Were it just Budler's promoter and stablemates/fellow SA boxers touting it as "better than Santa Cruz vs. Mares", it would be taken with a grain of salt, but I've seen loads of glowing reviews on Twitter from ringside fans calling it a FOTY candidate. Has anybody seen it? If so - that good, really? And, SHARE IT, DAMN YOU! :cus
Apparently the unheralded Khonco put on a heck of a gutsy performance and really pushed the Hexecutioner to his limit. :nod
Mares/Santa Cruz was alright. If it was marginally better than that fight, it still wouldn't be a FoTY.
