    Bad mistake by E-Rod. I get what he was trying to do—impose his will and size in Round 1, instill some doubt, then use his size advantage to box. Too bad Inoue's an exceptional counterpuncher as well.

    :deal:

    He did cuff him with a right at the start of the second...I get the impression that he thought he might be able to follow up...but in doing so, he left himself open for a counter against a fighter who is more than capable of ending a fight with one punch.
