    The way he jumped in with those southpaw lefts and dashed out of range from the 8th round on, reminded me a bit of Sultan doing just that to Briggs. It really surprised me, because during the middle rounds he looked like he lost his speed that made him effective earlier and basically he got beat up in the 7th & 8th, but miraculously turned it around, despite the weight difference. 11 pounds is a LOT in boxing. Great performance for him. :good

    That's exactly what I thought too during the fight. Cool to see others recognize it as well. :good
