    Crappy fight, honestly. Just two guys without enough power beating on one another all night with a robbery draw at the end.

    Dorin got robbed and after that he really lost his interest in boxing, which led to Gatti KTFO the out of him(not really but anyway).

    Moral of this story: Gatti is a true fighter, while paul and leonard are not.

    Not at all.

    Neither had legitimate power of any sort so they mauled each other for twelve rounds. No ebb and flow, nothing that stood out, just a one sided fight with a robbery at the end.

    I sought that fight out expecting a great one from what I had heard, by the way.

    Spadafora isnt a powerpuncher yeah your right..who cares though..he wanted to prove he had heart in that fight.he did..James Toney himself gave spaddys talent praise.gave him the name the mexican assasin.in freddie rouch;s gym he was spanking on all types of good fighters..Pauls underrated..Thats what a true technician is..Just used what he had n made the most of his skills

    I don't like seeing two fighters without power mauling one another. There's a difference between a clean KO and prolonged feather fisted beatings that lead to ******ation.

    For no reason, to reiterate, because it was a bull**** draw.

    I personally think Dorin was far better then Spadafora, anyway. Absolutely dominate Emmanuel Augustus.

    Is that the only fight you have seen of spadafora? Paul was in really bad condition that fight..Dorin is not better at all..

    His win over Cardona. Getting off the canvas to win against young victoriano Sosa.The manfredy win was great boxing..Not everyone is pernell Whitaker and Ray Leonard.. Spaddy has a style that appeals to some people. Some others dont like it.But he was a true defensive master..He did quite well for having a bum leg and no power

    Dorin won that fight pretty clear,that was a robbery.He won at least 7 rounds.The judge that scored it for Spadafora was brought in a week before with higher orders.And it was a great fight.
